Which of the following expressions is a polynomial in one variable \(x\)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(7x^2-3x+1\)
In \(7x^2-3x+1\), the powers of \(x\) are 2, 1 and 0, all non-negative integers, so it is a polynomial in one variable. \(\frac{1}{x}\) has power \(-1\). Exam tip: polynomial exponents must be 0, 1, 2, ... .
