(A)It is a binomial.
(B)It cannot be evaluated at x = -1/3
(C)It has a coefficient of 6.
(D)It is quadratic.

can someone help me out of this nightmare!!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(A)It is a binomial.... FALSE (since it has 3 terms, but binomials only have 2 terms)


(B)It cannot be evaluated at x = -1/3....TRUE (this is because the domain of ANY polynomial is the set of all real numbers)


(C)It has a coefficient of 6....TRUE (the term 6x^2 has a coefficient of 6)


(D)It is quadratic. ... TRUE (quadratics are polynomials of degree 2, ie highest exponent is 2)
