    THE FOLLOWING IS A TRINOMIAL WITH A CONSTANT TERM:

    C.2x^2 - 5 + x

    In elementary algebra, a trinomial is a polynomial

    consisting of three terms or monomials.

    A constant is a term without a variable (letter).

    A,and B have "xs" in every term so they don't contain constants.

    C and D both contain constants so you must have mis-copied a choice.

    C has - 5

    while

    D has -3

    C. The -5 is a constant term, it contains no variable.

    i'm taking a graduate math type and am only now appreciating how significant that's to have the means to 'comprehensive the sq.'. you desire to function an volume to make what you have a suitable sq.: x^2 + 7x +(7/2)^2 - (7/2)^2 (x+7/2)^2 - (7/2)^2 See how that works, that's a consumer-friendly technique to function 0 in a style that provides you what you desire.
