How do you multiply two monomials?

Back

To multiply two monomials, multiply their coefficients and add their exponents for like bases. For example, (2n^3)(3n^2) = 6n^(3+2) = 6n^5.

What is the degree of a monomial?

Back

The degree of a monomial is the sum of the exponents of its variables. For example, the degree of 4x^2y^3 is 2 + 3 = 5.

How do you combine like terms in a polynomial?

Back

Combine like terms by adding or subtracting their coefficients while keeping the variable part the same. For example, 10m^2n + 7mn^2 - m^2n = 9m^2n + 7mn^2.
