§5.2 Multiplication of Polynomials
Multiplying Polynomials EXAMPLE Multiply SOLUTION Rearrange factors Multiply coefficients and add exponents Simplify Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #2 Section 5.2
Multiplying Polynomials EXAMPLE Multiply SOLUTION Distribute Multiply coefficients and add exponents Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #3 Section 5.2
Multiplying Polynomials EXAMPLE Note this: We multiply each term of the binomial by each term of the trinomial. We get 6 products in all. Multiply SOLUTION Multiply the trinomial by each term of the binomial Distribute Multiply coefficients and add exponents Simplify Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #4 Section 5.2

Multiplying Polynomials – Special Formulas EXAMPLE Multiply SOLUTION We can group the terms so that the formula for the square of a binomial can be applied. (A + B) (A - B) =- Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #11 Section 5.2
Multiplying Polynomial Functions EXAMPLE (a) (fg)(x) (b) (fg)(-1) (c) (fg)(0) SOLUTION (a) (fg)(x) = f(x) g(x) Thus, = (x - 4)(x + 10) F O I L Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #12 Section 5.2
Multiplying Polynomial Functions CONTINUED (b) We use the product function to find (fg)(-1) – that is, the value of the function fg at -1. Replace x with -1. (c) We use the product function to find (fg)(0) – that is, the value of the function fg at 0. Replace x with 0. Blitzer, Algebra for College Students, 6e – Slide #13 Section 5.2
