Answer:

C. Quintic Binomial

Explanation:

The polynomial only has 2 terms, 3x^5 and 3,

So that leaves us with A and C.

Since A is a cubic binomial meaning that the exponent must be cubed or more specifically x^3.

That leaves us with C. Quintic Binomial, through this logic you can also say that Quin meaning 5, is correct.
