1. Introduction to Polynomials Topic 11 Polynomials 1. Introduction to Polynomials Definition A polynomial is an algebraic expression that only contains positive integer powers of a variable. The variable is usually x but it may be other letters such as y or z. For example each of the following algebraic expressions is a polynomial. (a) (d) 5x3 – 4x2 + 7 y3 – y2 + 1 (b) (e) 4x45 – 6x3 + x 2x4 – 4z5 (c) (f) 49 – x2 + x3 8k – 5k2 It is usual to rearrange a polynomial into what is called its Standard Form , this is where you write down the given polynomial in order of its powers with its highest power of x first and then continuing downwards from there. So for example it would be better to write 49 + x3 – x2 in its standard form x3 – x2 + 49. We call the numbers next to each power its coefficient so in the polynomial 5x3 – 4x2 + 7 we would say 5 is the coefficient of x3 and – 4 is the coefficient of x2 while the number + 7 is called the constant term. The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x it contains so in the above examples. The degree of the polynomial 5x3 – 4x2 + 7 is 3. The degree of the polynomial 4x45 – 6x3 + x is 45. The degree of the polynomial 49 – x2 + x3 is 3. Certain polynomials are given special names depending on the degree of the polynomial. If the degree is 1, for example 3x – 7 we say that the expression is Linear. If the degree is 2, for example 5x2 + x – 4 we say that the expression is a Quadratic. If the degree is 3, for example x3 +7x2 + 2 we say that the expression is a Cubic. If the degree is greater than 3 we call it a polynomial of degree n. Page | 1

Topic 11 Polynomials 2. Addition and Subtraction of polynomials The process o adding or subtracting polynomials involves collecting like terms together and then adding and subtracting them. What we mean when we say “like terms” is that we have terms which contain the same powers of same variables. They may have different coefficients, but that is the only difference. You probably know that if you have an expression like 4 + 3x you cannot add those terms to simplify it in any way. That’s because one term in a constant (the 4) and the other term has a variable (the x). We say that these are not like terms and cannot be combined. On the other hand it is possible to simplify the expression 4x + 5x to get 9x as we do have like terms and can therefore combine them in the usual way. It is also not possible to add 4x3 + 3x2 as x3 and x2 are completely different powers of x and are not considered like terms on the other hand you can add 5x4 + 3x4 – 2x4 = 6x3 as these are all the same powers of x and are considered like terms. In order to add or subtract a polynomial you typically group like terms together and add or subtract each group of like terms together. Example 1: Simplify the algebraic expression 2x4 + 3x2 – 2x + 3x4 + 6x2 + 8x + 8 Solution: This expression can be simplified by identifying like terms and then grouping and combining like terms, so we have three groups of like terms + 2x4 and + 3x4 are like terms, and can be combined to give + 5x4 + 3x2 and + 6x2 are like terms, and can be combined to give + 9x2 – 2x and + 8x are like terms, and can be combined to give + 6x the constant + 8 is on its own so it will stay as + 8 So after simplifying, this expression becomes: 2x4 + 3x2 – 2x + 3x4 + 6x2 + 8x + 8 = 2x4 + 3x4 + 3x2 + 6x2 – 2x + 8x + 8 5x4 + 9x2 + 6x + 8 Example 2: Simplify the polynomial (6x3 – 5x) + (3x3 – 4x2) Solution: (6x3 – 5x) + (3x3 – 4x2) = 6x3 + 3x3– 4x2– 5x 9x3– 4x2– 5x Rearrange like terms in order Add and subtract like terms Page | 3

y3 – 9y – 2y3 – 8y Topic 11 Polynomials Example 3: Simplify the polynomial 5x3 – 5x4 + 2x3 – x4 Solution: 5x3 – 5x4 + 2x3 – x4 = – 5x4 – x4 + 5x3 + 2x3 – 6x4 + 7x3 Rearrange like terms in order Add and subtract like terms Example 4: Add the polynomials ( 2y3 + 8y ) and ( y3 – 9y) Solution: ( 2y3 + 8y ) + ( y3 – 9y) = 2y3 + 8y + y3 – 9y 2y3 + y3 + 8y – 9y 3y3 – y Rearrange like terms in order Add and subtract like terms When you subtract polynomials we need to be careful to subtract all the terms and not just the first term. For example (6x3 – 3x + 1) – (x3 + 5x – 2) = 6x3 – 3x + 1 – x3 – 5x + 2 This is because we are subtracting all the terms in this bracket so – (x3 + 5x – 2) is the same as – (x3 + 5x – 2) = – 1(x3 + 5x – 2) = – x3 – 5x + 2. As long as we pay attention to this fact subtraction of polynomials is a relatively straight forward process. Example 4: Simplify ( 2y3 + 8y ) – ( y3 – 9y) Solution: ( 2y3 + 8y ) – ( y3 – 9y) = 2y3 + 8y – y3 + 9y 2y3 – y3 + 8y + 9y y3 + 17y Rearrange like terms in order Add and subtract like terms Example 5: Subtract ( 2y3 + 8y ) from ( y3 – 9y) Solution: ( y3 – 9y) – ( 2y3 + 8y ) = y3 – 9y – 2y3 – 8y y3 – 2y3 – 9y – 8y – y3 – 17y Rearrange like terms in order Add and subtract like terms Notice the order that we subtracted the two polynomials subtract ( 2y3 + 8y ) from ( y3 – 9y) We have the polynomial ( 2y3 + 8y ) first and subtract the polynomial ( y3 – 9y) from it.
