If a polynomial has degree 0, what type of non-zero polynomial can it be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Constant polynomial

The degree of a non-zero polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable whose coefficient is non-zero. If the degree is 0, no positive power of the variable is present, so the polynomial has the form c, where c is a non-zero constant; examples include 7, −3, and 1/2. Therefore it is a constant polynomial, making option C correct. A linear polynomial has degree 1, while a quadratic polynomial has degree 2. The zero polynomial is not an acceptable answer because its degree is generally undefined, not 0, since it has no non-zero coefficient and therefore no highest exponent. The word “non-zero” in the question is essential.
