A polynomial has the following form:


P(x)=a_nx^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+...+a_2x^2+a_1x+a_0

Therefore, the function is a polynomial

Answer:

It is a polynomial of degree 3.

The standard form of a 3rd degree polynomial is given by:


P(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d

So:

The polynomial in standard form is:


f(x)=x^3+3x

With the leading term x³ and the constant 0.
