Which of the following expressions is a quadratic polynomial in one variable?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(3x^2-5x+1\)
In \(3x^2-5x+1\), the highest power of x is 2 and every exponent is a non-negative integer, so it is quadratic. B has degree 3, while C and D are not polynomials because x occurs in a denominator and under a root. Exam tip: check exponents first.
