Which of the following expressions is a polynomial in one variable?

Question:

Which of the following expressions is a polynomial in one variable?

(a) $x+\frac{2}{x}+3$

(b) $3 \sqrt{x}+\frac{2}{\sqrt{x}}+5$

(c) $\sqrt{2} x^{2}-\sqrt{3} x+6$

(d) $x^{10}+y^{5}+8$

 

Solution:

(c) $\sqrt{2} x^{2}-\sqrt{3} x+6$

Clearly, $\sqrt{2} x^{2}-\sqrt{3} x+6$ is a polynomial in one variable because it has only non-negative integral powers of $x$.
