28.  The general form for a polynomial in x is: n: degree of the polynomial a: the coefficients a n : leading coefficient The leading coefficient MUST be attached to the variable with the HIGHEST degree!

29.  Degree of polynomial  General shape  Even or odd function  End behavior  Number of possible “solutions” (x-intercepts)  Always one y-intercept  Number/location of possible Maximum points and minimum points ▪ Absolute versus relative (global versus local)

30.  Analysis:  y = a n x n format  Degree = n ▪ Odd or even? (only odd or only even terms) ▪ End behavior ▪ Max. number of possible x-intercepts ▪ Absolute versus local mins/maxes ▪ other

31.  A company has pieces of cardboard that are 60 cm by 80 cm. They want to make boxes from them (without a top) to hold equipment. Squares with sides of length x are cut from each corner and the resulting flaps are folded to make an open box.

32.  What’s the (max? min?) volume of the box that can be created?  Draw a picture to help!!

33.  Look at our answer for the cardboard box:  What’s the degree of the polynomial?  What’s the leading coefficient?  To standardize, we ALWAYS want to write polynomials in standard form (terms in order of descending degree)

34.  Use the volume formula we got from the cardboard box.  Find V(10)  What does this mean/represent?

35.  Monomial: a polynomial with one term  Binomial: a polynomial with two terms  Trinomial: a polynomial with three terms  Polynomial: general term for any polynomial (especially if it has more than three terms)

36.  Polynomials may have more than one variable  For example: x 2 y 3 – 3y 2 + 2x 2 – 6 This would be a polynomial in x and y  The degree of a polynomial in more than one variable is the largest sum of the exponents of the variables in any term.  In the example above, the degree is 5.

37.  Express the surface area and the volume of a cube with sides of length (a+b) in terms of a and b.  State the degree of each polynomial.
