PolynomialsPolynomials• An algebraic expression with one or

more terms– Monomials have one term, 3x– Binomials have two terms, 3x

+ 4– Trinomials have three terms, x2

+ 3x + 4

Review:Review: Collecting Like Terms Collecting Like Terms

• You simplify polynomial expressions by collecting like terms

• Like terms have the same variable and the same exponent.2a, 5a, -7a are like terms

2a, 5b, 6c are not like terms a3, a2, a are not like terms• Constants are also like terms 2, 0.5, ¼ are like terms

Review:Review: Distributive Property Distributive Property

• We also learned that parenthesis mean to multiply.

• We use the distributive property to multiply polynomials

• The distributive property says: a(b+c) = a(b) + a(c)

Review:Review: Distribute and Collect Distribute and Collect

• For more complex expressions you may need to distribute and collect like terms.

• Distribute first• Then collect

Multiply PolynomialsMultiply Polynomials• In the previous examples, we were

multiplying polynomials by a monomial, e.g., 3 (x+2)

• 3 is a monomial• x+2 is a polynomial• What happens when you multiply two

polynomials, e.g., (x + 4)(x+2)?

Multiply PolynomialsMultiply Polynomials• We will look at three different

methods to multiply polynomials• You may prefer one method over

another• Today we will practice all three

methods
