8. Try This: Example 1 Determine whether each expression is a monomial. A. 2w p 3 y 8 B. 9t 3.2 z monomialnot a monomial 3 and 8 are whole numbers. 3.2 is not a whole number. Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

9. A polynomial is one monomial or the sum or difference of monomials. Polynomials can be classified by the number of terms. A monomial has 1 term, a binomial has 2 term, and a trinomial has 3 terms. Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

10. Additional Example 2: Classifying Polynomials by the Number of Terms Classify each expression as a monomial, a binomial, a trinomial, or not a polynomial. A. xy 2 B. 2x 2 – 4y –2 C. 3x 5 + 2.2x 2 – 4 D. a 2 + b 2 monomial Polynomial with 1 term. not a polynomial –2 is not a whole number. trinomial Polynomial with 3 terms. binomial Polynomial with 2 terms.

11. Try This: Example 2 Classify each expression as a monomial, a binomial, a trinomial, or not a polynomial. A. 4x 2 + 7z 4 B. 1.3x 2.5 – 4y C. 6.3x 2 D. c 99 + p 3 binomial Polynomial with 2 terms. not a polynomial 2.5 is not a whole number. monomial Polynomial with 1 term. binomial Polynomial with 2 terms. Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

12. A polynomial can also be classified by its degree. The degree of a polynomial is the degree of the term with the greatest degree. 4x 2 + 2x 5 + x + 5 Degree 2 Degree 5 Degree 1 Degree 0 Degree 5 Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

13. Additional Example 3A & 3B: Classifying Polynomials by Their Degrees Find the degree of each polynomial. A. x + 4 B. 5x – 2x 2 + 6 Degree 1 Degree 0 x + 4The degree of x + 4 is 1. Degree 1 Degree 2 Degree 0 5x – 2x 2 + 6 The degree of 5x – 2x 2 + 6 is 2. Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

17. Additional Example 4: Physics Application The height in feet after t seconds of a rocket launched straight up into the air from a 40-foot platform at velocity v is given by the polynomial –16t 2 + vt + s. Find the height after 10 seconds of a rocket launched at a velocity of 275 ft/s. Write the polynomial expression for height. –16t + vt + s –1600 + 2750 + 40 –16(10) 2 + 275(10) + 40 Substitute 10 for t, 275 for v, and 40 for s. Simplify. 1190 The rocket is 1190 ft high 10 seconds after launching. Pre-Algebra 13-1 Polynomials

18. Try This: Example 4 The height in feet after t seconds of a rocket launched straight up into the air from a 20-foot platform at velocity v is given by the polynomial -16t 2 + vt + s. Find the height after 15 seconds of a rocket launched at a velocity of 250 ft/s. Write the polynomial expression for height. –16t 2 + vt + s –3600 + 3750 + 20 –16(15) 2 + 250(15) + 20 Substitute 15 for t, 250 for v, and 20 for s.
