Question

What is the best name for polynomial with 3 terms that has a degree​

Answer 1

Names of Degrees

Degree Name Example

1 Linear x+3

2 Quadratic x2−x+2

3 Cubic x3−x2+5

4 Quartic 6x4−x3+x−2

Answer 2

Quartic Trinomial

Explanation:

Monomial = one term

Binomial = two terms

Trinomial = three terms

Polynomial = four or more terms

As the other answer says, the order for degrees is:

Linear - to first degree

Quadratic - to second degree

Cubic - to third degree

Quartic - to fourth degree

Quintic - to fifth degree

Anything above fifth degree is just said "__th degree"

Example: x^7 + x^2 + 5 would be seventh degree trinomial
