Question

Determine whether G(x) is a polynomial or not. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.

Answer 1

$G(x)\text{ = }2(x-1)(x^2+1)=2x^3-2x^2+2x-2$

Then, the function is a polynomial of degree 3.

The leading term is 2x^3 and the constant term is -2.
