Polynomials- November 20th & December 4th, 2024

Objective: I will be able to identify polynomial functions and perform algebraic operations on polynomial functions

monomial – is an expression that is a number, a variable, or a product of a number and one or more variables. Consequently, a monomial has no variable in its denominator. It has one term. (mono implies one).

13, 3x, -57, x2, 4y2, -2xy, or520x2y2

(notice: no negative exponents, no fractional exponents)

binomial – is the sum of two monomials. It has two unlike terms (bi implies two).

3x+1, x2 –4x, 2x+y, or y–y2

trinomial – is the sum of three monomials. It has three unlike terms. (tri implies three).


x2 +2

The degree of a monomial - is the sum of the exponents of its variables. For a nonzero constant, the degree is 0. Zero has no degree.

Each one of the little product things is a “term”.
 

2x3 –5x2 +x+9


The 
coefficients are the numbers in front of the letters.
