Polynomial: • An algebraic expression made up of terms. This polynomial has three terms Terms are separated by plusses (+) and minuses (-)
How many terms are in each polynomial? 2 terms 4 terms
Descending Order • By convention we write our polynomials in descending order; that is, from the highest exponent to the lowest exponent. Rewrite the polynomial in descending order highest lowest
Different kinds of polynomials • What does “poly” mean? • So a polynomial has MANY terms • What number does “mono” represent? • So a monomial has ONE term • What number does “bi” represent? • So a binomial has TWO terms • What number does “tri” represent? • So a trinomial has THREE terms
The DEGREE of a polynomial • The highest number of variables in one term. Has a degree of 2 Has a degree of 3 Has a degree of 3
Tell the type of polynomial and the degree Monomial Degree of 5 Binomial Degree of 1 Trinomial Degree of 4
ADDING polynomials Look for like terms What like terms do you see? –2y 7x
