What is the difference between a Monomial, Binomial, and a Trinomial?
Monomial is one term Binomial is two terms and a Trinomial is 3 terms.
What are the 2 methods to add/subtract polynomials?
Horizontal and vertical
"Distribute the monomial to each term of the polynomial. Multiply the factors in three parts" What are the three parts?
The sign
The coefficients
The variables.
What are the three special products?
Squaring a binomial
Perfect Square Trinomial
Difference of Two Squares
How do you divide a polynomial by a monomial?
Make new fraction
Each term goes numerator over the denominator
Divide each term in the numerator by the denominator
What does a "degree of a term" mean?
The sum of the exponents of the variables in the term.
What is the horizontal method?
Remove () by disturbing
Find the like terms
Combine the like terms
What is Quotient of Powers definitions? and examples
You need to divide the power with a like base the subtract your exponents
Example: h8/ h4 = h(8-4) = h4.
Example of Squaring a binomial
(x + y)4 = x4 + 4xy + y4
What should you remember when dividing like bases?
You always subtract the exponents.
What does "degree of a polynomial" mean?
It equal to the degree of the term with the highest degree.
What is the vertical method?
Remove the () by distributing
Make a table and sort like terms to the columns
Combine the terms in the columns
What is Power of a Quotient? and an example
=
You apply the exponent to the the numerator and denominator. When there is an exponent being to the power.
Example of Perfect Square Trinomial
(x + y)(x − y) = x6 − x6
What are Composite Functions?
A composite function, one is INSIDE another with equation
Constant, variable, or term raised to the zero power is equal to what?
1
What is power of product?
(XY)t=Xtyt
What do you do when there is Negative Exponents?
You flip the exponent to the bottom and turn the negative sign into a positive.
x-2/y=x/y2
Example of Difference of Two Squares
(x+ y)(x − y) = x3 − y3
Example of a composite fraction
f(x) = 2x + 1 and g(x) = x^2
Find: (f ∘ g)(x)
Solution: (f ∘ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x^2) = 2(x^2) + 1 = 2x^2 + 1
What is an example for degree of a constant is zero?
6x0=6(1)=6
What is a power of power?
(xy)t=xy*t
What happens when two or more polynomials are multiplied to each other?
They will still be a polynomials
what is one thing you have to do with Arithmetic Operations
You may add, subtract, multiply, and divide two functions but you need to set it up to determine which one you need to do.
