Which of the following is a monomial?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(3x^2\)
A monomial is a polynomial with exactly one term. \(3x^2\) has only one term, so it is a monomial. \(x+2\) has two terms and is a binomial, while \(x^2+x\) and \(x^2+x+1\) have two and three terms respectively. Exam tip: Count the parts separated by plus or minus signs to identify the number of terms.
