In #mathematics, a polynomial is a #mathematicalExpression consisting of #indeterminates (also called #variables) and #coefficients, that involves only the operations of #addition, #subtraction, #multiplication and #exponentiation to #nonnegativeInteger powers, and has a finite number of #terms. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate x is x2 − 4x + 7. An example with three indeterminates is x3 + 2xyz2 − yz + 1. #Polynomials appear in many areas of mathematics and science.
