The function which is different from other three functions is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Four functions are given as
Calculation:
A polynomial function is of the form
Terms of a polynomial function should be arranged in descending order according to its degree to express it in a standard form and degree of each term should be a positive integer or whole number. The coefficients should be real numbers.
Now, for the functions
So, the three functions are polynomial functions.
But, for the function
So, it is not a polynomial function.
Hence, the function which is different from other three functions is
