1 Polynomials P4

2 Naming Polynomials Practice: 3x4 = 4th degree monomial 5xy2=
# Terms Degree 1 – Monomial 1 – Linear 2 – Binomial 2 – Quadratic 3 – Trinomial 3 – Cubic 4+ - Polynomial th degree, etc. If a does not equal 0, the degree of axn is n. Degree of polynomials is the greatest degree of all its terms The degree of a nonzero constant is 0. The constant 0 has no defined degree. Practice: 3x4 = 4th degree monomial 5xy2= Cubic monomial 3xy +3x +4 = Quadratic Trinomial 3x4 +5xy + 6x + 2= 4th degree polynomial 3x2 +6x = Quadratic binomial 3x3+6x2+2x = Cubic Trinomial

3 Definition of a Polynomial in x
A polynomial in x is an algebraic expression of the form anxn + an-1xn-1 + an-2xn-2 + … + a1n + a0 where an, an-1, an-2, …, a1 and a0 are real numbers, an ≠ 0, and n is a non-negative integer. The polynomial is of degree n, an is the leading coefficient, and a0 is the constant term.

4 Definition of a Polynomial in x
A polynomial in x is an algebraic expression of the form anxn + an-1xn-1 + an-2xn-2 + … + a1n + a0 where an, an-1, an-2, …, a1 and a0 are real numbers, an ≠ 0, and n is a non-negative integer. The polynomial is of degree n, an is the leading coefficient, and a0 is the constant term. Identify the 3x8 + 5x4 + 2 …degree? …leading coefficient? …. and constant term?

5 Standard Form of a Polynomial
Write in order of descending powers of the variable So…3x + 5x8 - 9x should be written 5x8 - 9x3 +3x +10

6 Adding and Subtracting Polynomials (Ex#1)
Perform the indicated operations and simplify: (-9x3 + 7x2 – 5x + 3) + (13x3 + 2x2 – 8x – 6) Solution (-9x3 + 7x2 – 5x + 3) + (13x3 + 2x2 – 8x – 6) = (-9x3 + 13x3) + (7x2 + 2x2) + (-5x – 8x) + (3 – 6) Group like terms. = 4x3 + 9x2 – (-13x) + (-3) Combine like terms. = 4x3 + 9x2 + 13x – 3

7 Multiplying Polynomials (Ex #2)
The product of two monomials is obtained by using properties of exponents. For example, (-8x6)(5x3) = -8·5x6+3 = -40x9 Multiply coefficients and add exponents. Furthermore, we can use the distributive property to multiply a monomial and a polynomial that is not a monomial. For example, 3x4(2x3 – 7x + 3) = 3x4 · 2x3 – 3x4 · 7x + 3x4 · 3 = 6x7 – 21x5 + 9x4. monomial trinomial

8 Multiplying Polynomials when Neither is a Monomial (Ex #3)
Multiply each term of one polynomial by each term of the other polynomial. Then combine like terms.

9 Using the FOIL Method to Multiply Binomials
last first (ax + b)(cx + d) = ax · cx ax · d b · cx b · d Product of First terms Product of Outside terms Product of Inside terms Product of Last terms inner outer

10 Ex #3 Multiply: (3x + 4)(5x – 3).

11 Text Example Multiply: (3x + 4)(5x – 3). Solution
(3x + 4)(5x – 3) = 3x·5x + 3x(-3) + 4(5x) + 4(-3) = 15x2 – 9x + 20x – 12 = 15x2 + 11x – 12 Combine like terms. last first F O I L inner outer

12 The Product of the Sum and Difference of Two Terms (ex #4) DIFFERENCE OF SQUARES
The product of the sum and the difference of the same two terms is the square of the first term minus the square of the second term.

13 The Square of a Binomial Sum (Ex #5) PERFECT SQUARE TRINOMIAL
The square of a binomial sum is first term squared plus 2 times the product of the terms plus last term squared.

14 The Square of a Binomial Difference
The square of a binomial difference is first term squared minus 2 times the product of the terms plus last term squared.

15 Special Products Let A and B represent real numbers, variables, or algebraic expressions.  Special Product Example Sum and Difference of Two Terms (A + B)(A – B) = A2 – B (2x + 3)(2x – 3) = (2x) 2 – 32 = 4x2 – 9 Squaring a Binomial (A + B)2 = A2 + 2AB + B (y + 5) 2 = y2 + 2·y·5 + 52 = y2 + 10y + 25 (A – B)2 = A2 – 2AB + B2 (3x – 4) 2 = (3x)2 – 2·3x·4 + 42 = 9x2 – 24x + 16 Cubing a Binomial (A + B)3 = A3 + 3A2B + 3AB2 + B (x + 4)3 = x3 + 3·x2·4 + 3·x· = x3 + 12x2 + 48x + 64 (A – B)3 = A3 – 3A2B – 3AB2 + B (x – 2)3 = x3 – 3·x2·2 – 3·x· = x3 – 6x2 – 12x + 8

16 Text Example Multiply: a. (x + 4y)(3x – 5y) b. (5x + 3y) 2 Solution
We will perform the multiplication in part (a) using the FOIL method. We will multiply in part (b) using the formula for the square of a binomial, (A + B) 2. a. (x + 4y)(3x – 5y) Multiply these binomials using the FOIL method. = (x)(3x) + (x)(-5y) + (4y)(3x) + (4y)(-5y) = 3x2 – 5xy + 12xy – 20y2 = 3x2 + 7xy – 20y2 Combine like terms. (5 x + 3y) 2 = (5 x) 2 + 2(5 x)(3y) + (3y) 2 (A + B) 2 = A2 + 2AB + B2 = 25x2 + 30xy + 9y2 F O I L

17 Example ( 3x + 4 )2 =(3x)2 + (2)(3x) (4) + 42 =9x2 + 24x + 16
Multiply: (3x + 4)2. Solution: ( 3x + 4 )2 =(3x)2 + (2)(3x) (4) =9x2 + 24x + 16
