Lesson 9-1 Adding and Subtracting Polynomials. (Combining Like Terms) Designed by Skip Tyler, Varina High School
Definitions you’ll need: nomial – term mono – 1 bi – 2 tri – 3 degree – highest exponent you have 1 – linear 2 – quadratic 3 – cubic
Applying the Definitions: Examples of: monomials binomials trinomials 2x or 4y or 6 (just one term) 2x + 4 or y – 8 (two terms) 3x2 + 2x – 4 or 2x + y – 4 (three terms)
Applying the Definitions: Examples of: linear quadratic cubic 2x - 1 or 4y + 2 (highest power is 1) 3x2 + 2x – 4 (highest power is 2) 2g3 + 3g2 + 2g – 4 (highest power is 3)
More Examples… Classified by number of terms Classified by degree Polynomial Degree constant monomial 6 0 linear monomial –2x 1 linear binomial 1 3x + 1 quadratic trinomial –x2 + 2x – 5 2 cubic binomial 3 4x3 – 8x fourth degree polynomial 4 2x4 – 7x3 – 5x + 1
Let’s look at how to… • Add and Subtract Polynomials • Remember to combine like terms!!!
1. Add the following polynomials:(9y - 7x + 15a) + (-3y + 8x - 8a) Group your like terms. 9y - 3y - 7x + 8x + 15a - 8a 6y + x + 7a
2. Add the following polynomials:(3a2 + 3ab - b2) + (4ab + 6b2) Combine your like terms. 3a2 + 3ab + 4ab - b2 + 6b2 3a2 + 7ab + 5b2
3. Add the following polynomials using column form:(4x2 - 2xy + 3y2) + (-3x2 - xy + 2y2) Line up your like terms. 4x2 - 2xy + 3y2 + -3x2 - xy + 2y2 _________________________ x2 - 3xy + 5y2
4. Subtract the following polynomials:(9y - 7x + 15a) - (-3y + 8x - 8a) Rewrite subtraction as adding the opposite. (9y - 7x + 15a) + (+ 3y - 8x + 8a) Group the like terms. 9y + 3y - 7x - 8x + 15a + 8a 12y - 15x + 23a
5. Subtract the following polynomials:(7a - 10b) - (3a + 4b) Rewrite subtraction as adding the opposite. (7a - 10b) + (- 3a - 4b) Group the like terms. 7a - 3a - 10b - 4b 4a - 14b
6. Subtract the following polynomials using column form:(4x2 - 2xy + 3y2) - (-3x2 - xy + 2y2) Line up your like terms and add the opposite. 4x2 - 2xy + 3y2 + (+ 3x2+ xy - 2y2) -------------------------------------- 7x2 - xy + y2
Find the sum or difference.(5a – 3b) + (2a + 6b) • 3a – 9b • 3a + 3b • 7a + 3b • 7a – 3b
Find the sum or difference.(5a – 3b) – (2a + 6b) • 3a – 9b • 3a + 3b • 7a + 3b • 7a – 9b
