Answer:
a x^2/2 is a polynomial because the power of x is 2 which is a positive whole number but 2/x^2 is not a polynomial because the power of x is -2 which is negative whole number.
b.in
[tex] \sqrt{2 x} [/tex]
the power if x will be
[tex]x {}^{ \frac{1}{2} } [/tex]
which is not a whole number so it is not a polynomial.
but in
[tex] \sqrt{2} x[/tex]
the power if x is a positive whole number.so it is a polynomial.
c.the greatest power of variable of the term is called degree of polynomial
