Chapter 6 Polynomials
6.1 Adding Polynomials • Monomial – one term expression • Binomial – two term expression…. • Polynomial – “many terms” • What is a Term? • What does “like terms” mean?
The degree of a term is the power of the variable in that term… • Determine the degree of the term: 3x 3x 3xy • Determine the degree of the polynomial: 3x+5x+2 7x+2x+1
Rule for Adding Polynomials: • Combine like terms! • This means add or subtract the numbers (called coefficients) in front of the variables… • Ex: 3x + 7x = 10x • Ex: 5x + 6x² = 11x
Your Turn: • (6x² + 5x -7) + (5x +2) • (11xy-3y² - 4xy + 2) + (-6xy – 7xy + 4y² - 9) • HW 6.1 #13-50 odd
Agenda • Warm-up • 6.2 Subtracting Polynomials • Practice subtracting • 6.3 Multiplying Polynomials
Warm-up • Simplify 3x² + 2x – 6 - 5x² - 7x -3
Subtracting polynomials: • Distribute the negative sign.. • Ex: (5x – 2) – (7x – 3) = 5x – 2 – 7x + 3 = -2x + 1
Your Turn: • (12x + 5) – (9x – 11) • (3x + 2x – 2) – (4x + 4x – 7) • HW 6.2 #1-43 odd
Multiplying Monomials • Remember, a monomial is a ONE term math expression • Every monomial is the product of factors • Ex: 6m²n = 2·3·m·m·n
Three Important Rules: • Product of Powers: • Power of a power: • Power of a Product
Product of Powers: • This is the idea that when multiplying polynomials, you add the exponents • Ex: x·x = x • Your turn: 3y·4y = ?
Power of a Power • When raising a polynomial to a power, multiply • Ex: (x)=x • Your Turn: (m)=?
Power of a Product • When raising a product to a power, distribute: • Ex: (3a)² = 3²·a² = 9a² • Your turn: (2pq)³ = ? • HW: 6.3 #1 – 43 odd
Warm-Up • (-x³y)² • (-2ab²)³(5a²b³)² • (3x)² - 7 + 2x² + 5
Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial: • Use the distributive property… • Ex. 1: 7x(5y + 7) = 7x·5y + 7x·7 = 35 xy + 49 x • Ex. 2: 4x²(2yz + 5z) = 4x²·2yz + 4x²·5z = 8x²yz + 20x²z
Your Turn: • 8m(9m² + 6m + 3) • 2v³(12vp² - 7) • -7x²y(-3x – 7y – 12) • HW: 6.4 #1 – 31 odd
6.5 Multiplying Polynomials The FOIL Method
FOIL stands for: First – Outside – Inside – Last You should get four terms when multiplying two binomials. Your answer may only have three terms if you combine the two like terms.
FOIL: • Ex.1: (x + 5)(x – 7) = x·x + x·7 + 5·x + 5·7 = x² +7x + 5x + 35 = x² + 12x + 35
FOIL: • Ex. 2: (2x – 1)(x + 8) = 2x·x + 2x·8 + (-1)·x + (-1)·8 = 2x² + 16x + (-1)x + (-8) = 2x² + 15x - 8
Your Turn: • (x + 3)(x + 2) • (x + 2)(x – 2) • (3x -5)² • HW: 6.5 #1 – 43 odd
Agenda • Warm-Up • Homework Review 6.4 and 6.5 • Practice Layers * Adding/Subtracting * Multiplying Monomials * FOILing
Warm-Up • x³·x² • (x + 3)(x – 4) • (2x + 1)(x – 6)
Quotient Rules • Think of a polynomial as the product of its factors…
Divide a polynomial: • Divide each term of the numerator by the denominator:
