What does the term 'like terms' mean in polynomials?

Back

Like terms are terms in a polynomial that have the same variable raised to the same power.

Front

How do you combine like terms in a polynomial?

Back

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients of the terms that have the same variable and exponent.

Front

What is the degree of a polynomial?

Back

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the expression.

What is the difference between a monomial, binomial, and trinomial?

Back

A monomial has one term, a binomial has two terms, and a trinomial has three terms.

Front

How do you find the perimeter of a shape represented by a polynomial expression?

Back

To find the perimeter, substitute the values of the variables into the polynomial expression and simplify.

Front

What is the significance of coefficients in polynomial expressions?

Back

Coefficients are the numerical factors that multiply the variables in a polynomial and determine the polynomial's value.

Front

What is the process of evaluating a polynomial?

Back

Evaluating a polynomial involves substituting specific values for the variables and performing the arithmetic operations.
