Determine which of the following are polynomials. For those that are, state the degree.

Determine which of the following are polynomials. For those that are, state the degree. (a) Polynomial. Degree 2. (b) (c) Not a polynomial.

If f is a polynomial function and r is a real number for which

If f is a polynomial function and r is a real number for which f(r)=0, then r is called a (real) zero of f, or root of f. If r is a (real) zero of f, then (a) r is an x-intercept of the graph of f. (b) (x - r) is a factor of f.
