1 Answer

6 votes

Hi! I hope you're enjoying your day!

Here's how we classify polynomials:

  • Number of terms
  • Exponent (degree)

More Information:

A polynomial with 1 term is called a monomial (for example, 6d)

A polynomial with 2 terms is called a binomial (for example, 6d+ 2a)

A polynomial with 3 terms is called a trinomial (for example, 6d+2a-4s)

A polynomial with 4 or more terms is called a polynomial

(for example. 6d+2a-4s+3e-t+9k-12a)

Degree: first, second, third.. depends on the exponent.

Hence, -2 is


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{first-degree\;monomial}}}

Hope everything is clear.
