true roots

True or false: f(x)= x^3 - 2 times the square root of X is not a polynomial?
True, because polynomials involve only exponential values that are whole numbers (I say whole because you can have zero but it just means 1).
The square root of a number is like the number to the exponent 1/2.
This equation would in the end be:
x^(3/2) - (2 * the square root of x)
It is NOT a polynomial
