Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

The second choice

Discussion:

The first choice is not a polynomial because it contains sqrt(x)

The third choice is not a polynomial because it contains (1/x)

The fourth choice is not a polynomial because it contains x in the exponent (ie. 5^x)

Thank you,

MrB
