Which best describes the expression 12/a + 2a - 8? a. monomial b. binomial c. trinomial d. not a polynomial

The correct option is c. trinomial

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to answer the question, we need to know some terms.

A binomial expression is an expression which is formed by the sum or the subtraction of two terms (or two monomial).

For example :

is a binomial expression

When we only have one term :

is a monomial expression.

The expression :

is formed by the sum and subtraction of three terms ⇒ It is called a trinomial expression.

And that's the correct answer.

We can also add that a polynomial expression is an expression which is formed by many monomial terms.

is a polynomial expression.

The correct answer is c. trinomial

the solution is 12x-6y
