How can be a monomial be a polynomial?
Since a Polynomial means "consisting of several terms", but a monomial contains a "single term", how was it considered a polynomial?
It was said that even 1 is a polynomial, because only one term is allowed, even a single constant or term, but why did they defined a polynomial "consisting of several terms" or "two or more terms" if a monomial, consisting of "single term" is a type of polynomial according in the number in terms?
I'm hoping you guys will answer.
