Explanation:

It is a 5th degree binomial. The highest exponetial power of the polynomial is 5, therefore we are dealing with a 5th degree polynomial. "Polynomial" is a general term. Trinomial and binomial categorize it even more by the number of terms the polynomial has. There are two terms, so we are dealing with a binomial. The prefix bi means "two"

Answer:

Binomial with degree 5

Explanation:

The polynomial 3x⁵ + 3 is a binomial with degree 5.

Why?

This option is correct because:

  • 3x⁵ + 3 has two terms & hence is a binomial.
  • Also, the highest exponential power in this polynomial is 5 & hence it's degree is also 5.
