[tex]r^2+3r+5-r^3/r[/tex] is a linear polynomial
Step-by-step explanation:
based on the highest power of the variables of a polynomial, it can be classified as linear,polynomial, quadratic polynomial,cubic polynomial etc.
In a linear polynomial, the highest power of the variable is 1. The general form of a linear polynomial is ax+b
In a quadratic polynomial, the highest power of the variables is 2.The general form of quadratic polynomial is [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex]
In a cubic polynomial,the highest power of variable is 3.The general form of cubic polynomial is [tex]ax^3+bx^2+cx+d[/tex].
Take the given question and simplify it
[tex]r^2+3r+5-r^3/r=r^2+3r+5-r^2\\=3r+5[/tex]
It is of the form ax+b. Hence it is a linear polynomial.
