Semester Plan You need one to two pieces of paper out. Place your name at the top of the paper and title according the listing below of the day. • Tuesday : Chapter 8 Exponents #1-12 • Wednesday: Chapter 9 Polynomials #1-10 • Thursday: Chapter 9 Polynomials #11-20 • Friday: Chapter 10 Quadratic #1-9
Chapter 9 • Monomial • Degree of a monomial • Polynomial • Terms • Degree of a polynomial • Coefficient • Leading Coefficient • Binomial • Trinomial • Coincide • FOIL Method • Zero-Product Property • Roots • Vertical Motion Model • Zero of a function • Greatest Common Factor • Factorization • Perfect Square Trinomial • Factor by Grouping • Factor Completely
Monomial • Is a number, a variable, or the product of a number and one or more variables with whole number exponents. • Ex: 3, 5x, 6x2 , 5x6y8z2
Degree of a monomial • Is the sum of the exponents of the variables in the monomial. • Ex:
Polynomial • Is a monomial or a sum of monomials • Ex: 3w + 4x + 5y + 7z
Terms • Are the monomials in a polynomial that are separated by either a plus or minus sign. • Ex: for the polynomial 5x + 3y – 8z the terms are 5x, 3y, -8z
Degree of the polynomial • Is the greatest degree of its terms. • Ex: for the polynomial 5x4 + 3y3 – 8z the degree of the polynomial is 4
Coefficient • The number part of a term with a variable part. • Ex: the coefficient of -6x is 6
Leading Coefficient • When a polynomial is written so that the exponents of a variable decrease from left to right, the coefficient of the first term is the leading coefficient • Ex: 2x3 + x2 – 5x + 12 the leading coefficient is 2
Binomial • A polynomial with two terms • Ex: 2x2+ 12
Trinomial • A polynomial with three terms • Ex: 2x3 + x2 + 12
Coincide • An equation that when simplified the expressions are identical.
