Polynomials
A polynomial is an expression that has two or more terms
included in it. The terms, when dealing with their
degree, are ordered from greatest to least with respect
to it's degree. For example, if you had three terms, one
being squared, one being cubed, and one being a constant,
the cubic term would be positioned first, followed by the
squared, and then the constant, in standard form.
It is a function of x with the
degree n where the leading coefficient is not equal to
zero.
