Polynomials

In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression consisting of indeterminates (also called variables) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate x is $$x^2 − 4x + 7$$. An example in three variables is $$x^3 + 2xyz^2 − yz + 1$$.
