1. Warm Up Introduction to Polynomials and Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

2. Classifying Polynomials: We classify polynomials based on the number of _________. What is a monomial? What is a binomial? What is a trinomial? When do we use the term polynomial? terms A polynomial with only 1 term. A polynomial with 2 terms. A polynomial with 3 terms. We use the term polynomial to describe any expression which contains some combination of variables and numbers.

3. What is a term? Terms are made up of numbers, variables or the product and/or quotient of some combination of numbers and variables. 2x EXAMPLE: 2x is a term. (the product of a # and variable) 2x/3 2x/3 is a term. (the quotient of a # and variable) Terms are separated by ________ and ________ signs! + -

4. Classify each of the polynomials 1.3x 2 y + 3x + 4y 2.2x 2 y 4 z 3.2xy 2 + 3x 2 y + 9x 4.5x 2 y + 2xy 3 Trinomial Monomial Trinomial Binomial

5. Calculating the degree of a polynomial.. If it is a single variable term, find the term with the largest exponent. 5x 3 + 9x 2 + x This is a 3rd degree polynomial. Remember the understood 1!!! 1 If it is a multi-variable term, you add the exponents of all of the variables. 4x 2 y + 2xy 3 + 9 This is a 4th degree polynomial (3+1=4). Don’t forget the understood 1’s!!!! 11

6. Calculate the degree of the polynomial… 1.6x 2 + 4x + 4x 3 + x 2.21x 2 y + 12x 4 y 2 + 2xy 4 3.3x 2 + 2y 3 3rd degree 6th degree 3rd degree

7. Writing a polynomial in standard form… Standard form is in descending order of the x variable. 1.2xy 3 + 3x 2 y + x 3 2.3xy 2 + 3x 3 + 2x 2 y X 3 + 3x 2 y + 2xy 3 3x 3 + 2x 2 y + 3xy 2

8. Adding and Subtracting Polynomials… is nothing more than combining like terms. Remember you can do this vertically or horizontally. 1.(2x 2 - 3x + 3) + (4x 2 + 5x - 9) 2.(3x 2 - 9x - 5) - (-2x 2 - 4x + 5) 6x 2 + 2x -6 5x 2 - 5x - 10 5(x 2 - x - 2)

9. Ex 1 (x 2 + 3x + 4) + (-2x 2 + 10x - 5) Combine LIKE terms x 2 + 3x + 4 -2x 2 + 10x - 5 -1x 2 + 13x - 1 Final Answer

10. Ex 2. (4b 3 - 2b) + (b 3 + 6b 2 + 3b - 7) 4b 3 + 0b 2 - 2b + 0 b 3 + 6b 2 + 3b - 7 5b 3 + 6b 2 + 1b - 7 Final Answer

11. Ex 3. (12y 2 - 8y + 4) - (9y 2 + 5y + 1) Don’t forget to Distribute the -1!! (12y 2 - 8y + 4) - 1(9y 2 + 5y + 1) (12y 2 - 8y + 4) - 9y 2 - 5y - 1 12y 2 - 8y + 4 - 9y 2 - 5y - 1 3y 2 - 13y + 3 Final Answer
