Question
On adding a monomial _____________ to $-2 x+4 y^2+z$, the resulting expression becomes a binomial.

Answer

On adding a monomial $\underline{2 x or -4 y^2 or -z}$ to $-2 x+4 y^2+z$, the resulting expression becomes a binomial.
Solution:
We can add $2 x,-4 y^2$ and $-z$ to the expression to make it binomial.
$\Rightarrow 2 x+\left(-2 x+4 y^2+z\right)=4 y^2+z$
$\Rightarrow-4 y^2+\left(-2 x+4 y^2+z\right)=-2 x+z$
$\Rightarrow-z+\left(-2 x+4 y^2+z\right)=-2 x+4 y^2$
Hence, on adding a monomial $2 x$ or $-4 y^2$ or $-z$ to $-2 x+4 y^2+z$, the resulting expression becomes a binomial.
