Answer:

The answers are letters C and D.

Explanation:

In order to determine the answer, we have to know about monomials.

A monomial is an expression that has just one term. A term can be a variable with a coefficient or just a coefficient. It does not matter the grade of the variable, because the definition of monomial is related to the term.

According to the possible options:

A. There are two terms, so it is a binomial.

B. There are two terms, so it is a binomial.

C. There is just one term, so it is a monomial.

D. There is just one term, so it is a monomial.

Finally, the correct answers are letters C and D.
