What is the standard form of a polynomial?

Back

The standard form of a polynomial is when the terms are arranged in descending order of their exponents. For example, 2x^3 + 9x^2 + 5x + 27.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you simplify the expression (4n^4 - 8n + 4) - (8n^2 + 4n^4 + 1)?

Back

Combine like terms: (4n^4 - 4n^4) + (-8n - 0) + (4 - 1) - 8n^2 = -8n^2 - 8n + 3.

What are like terms in a polynomial?

Back

Like terms are terms that have the same variable raised to the same power. For example, y^2 and 2y^2 are like terms.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a leading coefficient in a polynomial?

Back

The leading coefficient is the number in front of the term with the highest exponent in a polynomial. For example, in 2x^3 + 5x^2, the leading coefficient is 2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the degree of a polynomial?

Back

The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable in the polynomial. For example, the degree of 2x^3 + 5x^2 is 3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the result of adding the polynomials (3x^2 + 2x) and (4x^2 + 5)?

Back

The result is (3x^2 + 4x^2) + 2x + 5 = 7x^2 + 2x + 5.
