Operations With Algebraic Expressions An algebraic expression of the form axn, where the coefficient a is a real number and n is a nonnegative integer, is called a monomial, meaning it consists of one term. Examples: 7x2 2xy 12x3y4 A polynomial is a monomial or the sum of two or more monomials. 4x x4 – 3 x2y – xy + y
Operations With Algebraic Expressions Constant terms, or terms containing the same variable factors are called like, or similar, terms. Like terms may be combined by adding or subtracting their numerical coefficients. Examples: 3x + 7x = 10x 12xy – 17xy = – 5xy

Special Products Let a and b be real numbers, variables, or algebraic expressions. Sum and Difference of Same Terms (a - b)(a + b) = a2 - b2 Square of a Binomial: (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2 Cube of a Binomial: (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3 (a – b)3 = a3 – 3a2b + 3ab2 – b3

The Product of Two Trinomials Multiply: (x + y – 2)(x + y + 2) =x2 + 2xy + y2 – 4
Factoring Factoring is the process of expressing an algebraic expression as a product of other algebraic expressions. Example:
Factoring To factor an algebraic expression, first check to see if it contains any common terms. If so, factor out the greatest common term. For example, the greatest common factor for the expression is 2a, because
Examples Factor out the greatest common factor in each expression
Factor by Grouping Factor out the greatest common factor in each group
