Notes #6

8-1: Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

A. Describing polynomials

A ____________________ is an expression that is a number, a variable, or a product of a

number and one or more variables.

Ex:

The _____________ of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of its variables. For a

nonzero constant, the degree is ___. Zero has ____ degree.

Find the degree of each monomial.

1.) 2

3x 2.) 7x2y3 3.) 4

A ____________________ is a monomial or a sum and/or difference of monomials.

Standard form of a polynomial means that the degrees of its monomial terms

______________ from left to right.

The ____________ of a polynomial in one variable is the same as the degree of the

monomial with the greatest exponent.

Ex: 3x4 5x2 7x 1

Write each polynomial in standard form. Then name each polynomial based on its degree and

number of its terms.

B. Adding and subtracting polynomials

You can add polynomials by adding or subtracting like terms. You can add or

subtract vertically or horizontally.

4.) 4x3 12x2 8x 5.) 5v5 10v3 6.) 3t 2 18

To factor a polynomial completely, you must factor until there are no common factors

other than ____.

Factor. Distribute to check your answer.

8-3: Multiplying Binomials

A. Multiplying two binomials

One way to organize multiplying two

binomials is to use FOIL, which stands for:

o F

o O

o I

o L

Ex: (4x – 1)(x + 3)

Another way to multiply polynomials is to use

boxes. Multiply each monomial together and

put their product in their shared box. Combine

like terms and write your answer as a

polynomial in descending order.

Ex: (4x – 1)(x + 3)

Simplify.

1.) (2x 3)(x 4) 2.) (5 2)(8 1)m m

3.) (9a 8)(7a 4) 4.) (6 7)(6 7)h h

5.) (3x 4)(2x 5) 6.) (3 4)(3 4)x x

B. Multiplying a trinomial and a binomial

Simplify the product.

7.) (4x2 x 6)(2x 3) 8.) (6n 8)(2n2 n 7)

8-4: Multiplying Special Cases

A. Finding the square of a binomial (___________ in disguise!)

The square of a binomial:

o (a b)2

o (a b)2

Find each square.

9.) (t 6)2 10.) (x 7)2 11.) (7m 2 p)2

12.) (9c 8)2 13.) (4k 3)2 14.) (2y 11)2

Notes #10

8-8: Factoring 4-termed Polynomials

Steps: 12x3 + 15x – 4x2 – 5

Write in standard form (descending order)

Check for a GCF

Draw a 2x2 box and fill it in with the four terms

Find the GCF for each row and each column. Take the sign

(positive/negative) of the leading term

Write your answer as (______)(______)

FOIL to check

Factor using the Box Method. FOIL to check..
