Question
Classify the following as a constant, linear, quadratic and cubic polynomials:
`5t - sqrt(7)`
Solution
Constant polynomials: The polynomial of the degree zero.
Linear polynomials: The polynomial of degree one.
Quadratic polynomials: The polynomial of degree two.
Cubic polynomials: The polynomial of degree three.
Power of t = 1.
The highest power of the variable t in the given expression = 1
Hence, the degree of the polynomial = 1
Since it is a polynomial of degree 1, it is a linear polynomial.
