Correct question is;
A polynomial contains _____ number of terms
Answer:
(n + 1)
Where n is the degree of the polynomial
Explanation:
Now, for a polynomial that has degree of n = 1, the number of terms it will have is 2.
Similarly, a polynomial that has degree of n = 2, the number of terms it will have is 3.
This means from the above, we can deduce that the number of terms in a polynomial with degree "n" is n + 1.
We can therefore conclude that a polynomial can have any finite number of terms as n + 1
