Goals and Objectives· Students will be able to combine polynomial
functions using operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Slide 22 / 276
A monomial is an expression that is a number, a variable, or the product of a number and one or more variables with whole number exponents.
A polynomial is the sum of one or more monomials, each of which is a term of the polynomial.
Put a circle around each term:

Slide 26 / 276
Polynomials can also be classified by degree. The table below summarizes these classifications.
Slide 27 / 276
A polynomial function is a function in the form
where n is a nonnegative integer and the coefficients
are real numbers.
The coefficient of the first term, an, is the leading coefficient.
A polynomial function is in standard form when the terms are in order of degree from highest to lowest.

For extra practice, make up a few of your own!
Slide 29 / 276
To add or subtract polynomials, simply distribute the + or - sign to each term in parentheses, and then combine the like terms from each polynomial.
Examples:
(2a2 +3a - 9) + (a2 - 6a +3)
(2a2 +3a - 9) - (a2 - 6a +3)
Watch your signs...forgetting to distribute the minus sign is one of the most common mistakes students make !!

Square of a Sum (a + b)2 = (a + b)(a + b) = a2 + 2ab + b2
The square of a + b is the square of a plus twice the product of a and b plus the square of b.
Example:
Slide 52 / 276
Square of a Difference (a - b)2 = (a - b)(a - b) = a2 - 2ab + b2
The square of a - b is the square of a minus twice the product of a and b plus the square of b.
Example:
Slide 53 / 276
Product of a Sum and a Difference (a + b)(a - b) = a2 + -ab + ab + -b2 = Notice the sum of -ab and ab a2 - b2 equals 0.
The product of a + b and a - b is the square of a minus the square of b.

A-APRTrina's Triangles
Alice and her friend Trina were having a conversation. Trina said "Pick any 2 integers. Find the sum of their squares, the difference of their squares and twice the product of the integers. These 3 numbers are the sides of a right triangle."
Trina had tried this with several examples and it worked every time, but she wasn't sure this "trick" would always work.
a. Investigate Trina's conjecture for several pairs of integers. Does it work?
b. If it works, then give a precise statement of the conjecture, using variables to represent the chosen integers, and prove it. If not true, modify it so that it is true, and prove the new statement.
c. Use Trina's trick to find an example of a right triangle in which all of the sides have integer length. all 3 sides are longer than 100 units, and the 3 side lengths do not have any common factors.

Factoring Polynomials ReviewThe process of factoring involves breaking a product down into its factors. Here is a summary of factoring strategies:
Slide 84 / 276
Berry Method to factor
Step 1: Calculate ac.
Step 2: Find a pair of numbers m and n, whose product is ac, and whose sum is b.
Step 3: Create the product .
Step 4: From each binomial in step 3, factor out and discard any common factor. The result is your factored form.
Example:
Slide 85 / 276
Example:
Step 1: ac = -15 and b = -2
Step 2: find m and n whose product is -15 and sum is -2; so m = -5 and n = 3
Step 3: (ax + m)(ax + n) = (3x - 5)(3x + 3)
Step 4: (3x + 3) = 3(x + 1) so discard the 3
Therefore, 3x2 - 2x - 5 = (3x - 5)(x + 1)

Zeros of a Polynomial"Zeros" are the points at which the polynomial intersects the x-axis. They are called "zeros" because at each point f(x) = 0. Another name for a zero is a root.
A polynomial function of degree n has at MOST n real zeros.
An odd degree polynomial must have at least one real zero. (WHY?) Zeros

A polynomial function can be sketched by creating a table, plotting the points, and then connecting the points with a smooth curve.
Look at the first term to determine the end behavior of the graph. In this case, the coefficient is negative and the degree is odd, so the

Intermediate Value TheoremGiven a continuous function f(x), every value between f(a) and f(b) exists.
Let a = 2 and b = 4,then f(a)= -2 and f(b)= 4.
For every x-value between 2 and 4 there exists a y-value, so there must be an x-value for which y = 0.

Relative Maxima and Relative MinimaThere are 2 relative maximum points at x = -1 and at x = 1. The relative maximum value appears to be -1 (the y-coordinate).

The relative maxima and minima occur when the direction changes from decreasing to increasing, or from increasing to decreasing.

Real Zeros of Polynomial Functions
For a function f(x) and a real number a, if f (a) = 0, the following statements are equivalent:
x = a is a zero of the function f(x).
x = a is a solution of the equation f (x) = 0.
(x - a) is a factor of the function f(x).
(a, 0) is an x-intercept of the graph of f(x).
Slide 185 / 276
The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
An imaginary zero occurs when the solution to f (x) = 0 contains complex numbers. Imaginary zeros are not seen on the graph.
If f (x) is a polynomial of degree n, where n > 0, then f (x) = 0 has n zeros including multiples and imaginary zeros.
Slide 186 / 276
Complex NumbersComplex numbers will be studied in detail in the Radicals Unit. But in order to fully understand polynomial functions, we need to know a little bit about complex numbers.
Up until now, we have learned that there is no real number, x, such that x2 = -1. However, there is such a number, known as the imaginary unit, i, which satisfies this equation and is defined as .
The set of complex numbers is the set of numbers of the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers.
When a = 0, bi is called a pure imaginary number.
Slide 187 / 276
The square root of any negative number is a complex number.

The number of the zeros of a polynomial, both real and imaginary, is equal to the degree of the polynomial.
This is the graph of a polynomial with degree 4. It has four unique zeros: -2.25, -.75, .75, 2.25
Since there are 4 real zeros,there are no imaginary zeros.(4 in total - 4 real = 0 imaginary)
Slide 190 / 276
This 5th degree polynomial has 5 zeros, but only 3 of them are real. Therefore, there must be two imaginary.
(How do we know that this is a 5th degree polynomial?)
Note: imaginary roots always come in pairs: if a + bi is a root, then a - bi is also a root. (These are called conjugates - more on that in later units.)
Slide 191 / 276
This is a 4th-degree polynomial. It has two unique real zeros: -2 and 2. These two zeros are said to have a multiplicity of two, which means they each occur twice.
There are 4 real zeros and therefore no imaginary zeros for this function.
2 zeros each
A vertex on the x-axis indicates a multiple zero, meaning the zero occurs two or more times.
Slide 192 / 276
What do you think are the zeros and their multiplicity for this function?
Slide 193 / 276
Notice the function for this graph.
x - 1 is a factor two times, and x = 1 is a zero twice.
x + 2 is a factor two times, and x = -2 is a zero twice.
Therefore, 1 and -2 are zeros with multiplicity of 2.
x + 3 is a factor once, and x = 3 is a zero with multiplicity of 1.

We are going to need to do some long division, but by what do we divide?
The Remainder Theorem told us that for a function, f (x), if we divide f (x) by x - a, then the remainder is f (a). If the remainder is 0, then x - a if a factor of f (x).
In other words, if f (a) = 0, then x - a is a factor of f (x).
So how do we figure out what a should be????
We could use guess and check, but how can we narrow down the choices?
