Vocabulary monomial degree of a monomial polynomial degree of a polynomial standard form of a polynomial leading coefficient quadratic cubic binomial trinomial
A monomial is a number, a variable, or a product of numbers and variables with whole-number exponents. The degree of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of the variables. A constant has degree 0.
A. 4p4q3 Example: Finding the Degree of a Monomial The degree is 7. Add the exponents of the variables: 4 + 3 = 7. B. 7ed The degree is 2. Add the exponents of the variables: 1+ 1 = 2. C. 3 The degree is 0. Add the exponents of the variables: 0 = 0.
a. b. c. 1.5k2m 4x 2c3 Check It Out! Find the degree of each monomial. The degree is 3. Add the exponents of the variables: 2 + 1 = 3. The degree is 1. Add the exponents of the variables: 1 = 1. The degree is 3. Add the exponents of the variables: 3 = 3.
Remember! The terms of an expression are the parts being added or subtracted.
A polynomialis a monomialor a sum/ difference of monomials. The degree of a polynomial is the degree of the term with the greatest degree.
B. :degree 4 :degree 3 –5: degree 0 Example: Finding the Degree of a Polynomial A. 11x7 + 3x3 11x7: degree 7 3x3: degree 3 The degree of the polynomial is the greatest degree, 7. The degree of the polynomial is the greatest degree, 4.
The terms of a polynomial may be written in any order. However, polynomials that contain only one variable are usually written in standard form. The standard form of a polynomial that contains one variable is written with the terms in order from greatest degree to least degree. When written in standard form, the coefficient of the first term is called the leading coefficient.
Standard form is –7x5 + 4x2 + 6x + 9. The leading coefficient is –7. Example 3A: Writing Polynomials in Standard Form Write the polynomial in standard form. Then give the leading coefficient. 6x – 7x5 + 4x2 + 9 = –7x5 + 4x2 + 6x + 9
Remember! A variable written without a coefficient has a coefficient of 1. y5 = 1y5
The leading x5 + 9x3 – 4x2 + 16. The standard form is coefficient is 1. Check It Out! 16 – 4x2 + x5 + 9x3
