Question

f(x)=√5x+1 is it a polynomial function?

Answer 1

Given:

$f(x)=\sqrt[]{5}x+1$

Polynomial:

The polynomial is expressed as,

$\begin{gathered} p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\ldots\ldots.a_1x+a_0 \\ n\text{ is non-negative integer.} \\ a_i\text{ are non-zero real numbers} \end{gathered}$

The given function has a real coefficient and non-negative power.

Therefore, it is a polynomial.
