To multiply polynomials – use the Laws of Exponents and the Distributive Property Examples: Perform the indicated operations. Express your answer as a single polynomial in standard form.
Examples: Perform the indicated operations. Express your answer as a single polynomial in standard form.
Example (perfect squares): Example (difference of two squares): We CANNOT distribute the exponent here!
Examples: Perform the indicated operations. Express your answer as a single polynomial in standard form.

Independent Practice You learn math by doing math. The best way to learn math is to practice, practice, practice. The assigned homework examples provide you with an opportunity to practice. Be sure to complete every assigned problem (or more if you need additional practice). Check your answers to the odd-numbered problems in the back of the text to see whether you have correctly solved each problem; rework all problems that are incorrect.
