Which of the following expressions is a polynomial in one variable?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(4x^3-2x+7\)
In \(4x^3-2x+7\), the powers of \(x\) are 3, 1 and 0, all non-negative integers; hence it is a polynomial in one variable. \(3/x=3x^{-1}\) has a negative exponent. Exam tip: check that every variable exponent is 0, 1, 2, ... .
