Introduction to Polynomials

Classifying by number of terms 7.1 Vocabulary Classifying by number of terms Monomial: A number, a variable or the product of a number and one or more variables. Ex. 5ab Ex. 4 Ex. 3x Polynomial: A monomial or a sum of monomials. (General term) Ex. 3x Ex. 3x – 4 Ex. 5x3+2x2-5x+1 Binomial: A polynomial with exactly two terms. Ex. 3x – 4 Trinomial: A polynomial with exactly three terms. Ex. 4x2-2x+1 *This is how we classify a polynomial by the number of terms-4 terms or higher is just a polynomial Coefficient: A numerical factor in a term of an algebraic expression. Ex. For 5x2 The coefficient is 5

Vocabulary -Ways to classify by degree: Degree of a monomial: The sum of the exponents of all of the variables in the monomial. Degree of a polynomial in one variable: The largest exponent of that variable. -Ways to classify by degree: Constant (degree 0), Ex. 7 Linear (1), Ex. 3x + 4 Quadratic (2), Ex. 8x2 – 6 Cubic (3) ex. 5x3 +2x +1 , anything higher: 4th degree, 5th degree, ect… Standard form: When the terms of a polynomial are arranged from the largest exponent to the smallest exponent in decreasing order.

Degree of a Monomial What is the degree of the monomial? The degree of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of the variables in the monomial. The exponents of each variable are 4 and 2. 4+2 = 6. The degree of the monomial is 6. The monomial can be referred to as a sixth degree monomial.

Polynomials in One Variable A polynomial is a monomial or the sum of monomials Each monomial in a polynomial is a term of the polynomial. The number factor of a term is called the coefficient. The coefficient of the first term in a polynomial is the lead coefficient. A polynomial with two terms is called a binomial. A polynomial with three terms is called a trinomial.

Polynomials in One Variable The degree of a polynomial in one variable is the largest exponent of that variable. A constant has no variable. It is a 0 degree polynomial. This is a 1st degree polynomial. 1st degree polynomials are linear. This is a 2nd degree polynomial. 2nd degree polynomials are quadratic. This is a 3rd degree polynomial. 3rd degree polynomials are cubic.

Classify by number of terms Example Classify the polynomials by degree and number of terms. Classify by number of terms Classify by degree Polynomial Degree a. b. c. d. Zero Constant Monomial First Linear Binomial Second Quadratic Binomial Trinomial Third Cubic

Standard Form To rewrite a polynomial in standard form, rearrange the terms of the polynomial starting with the largest degree term and ending with the lowest degree term. The leading coefficient, the coefficient of the first term in a polynomial written in standard form, should be positive.

Remember: The lead coefficient should be positive in standard form. Examples Write the polynomials in standard form. Remember: The lead coefficient should be positive in standard form. To do this, multiply the polynomial by –1 using the distributive property.

Practice Write the polynomials in standard form and identify the polynomial by degree and number of terms. 1. 2.

Problem 1 This is a 3rd degree, or cubic, trinomial.

Problem 2 This is a 2nd degree, or quadratic, trinomial.
