Let us first define the classifications of these 3 polynomials:

Monomials contain only one term.

Binomials contain only two terms.

Trinomials contain only three terms.

x + y	two terms	Binomial
1000	one term	Monomial
x + x2 + x3 + x4	four terms	Polynomial, and it does not fit in the listed three categories

= ab – ab – bc + bc – ca + ca

= 0

ii) (a – b + ab) + (b – c + bc) + (c – a + ac)

= a – b + ab + b – c + bc + c – a + ac

= 12a – 9ab + 5b – 3 – 4a + 7ab – 3b – 12

= 12a – 4a -9ab + 7ab +5b – 3b -3 -12

= 8a – 2ab + 2b – 15

b) (5xy – 2yz – 2zx + 10xyz) – (3xy + 5yz – 7zx)

= 5xy – 2yz – 2zx + 10xyz – 3xy – 5yz + 7zx
