Review - QUIZ 1.3-1.4

Review: Quiz 1.3-1.4

Quotient rule simply states that as long as the base is the same, we can just divide two powers by subtracting the exponents.

​Division of a Polynomial by a Binomial

1.3: Division with Polynomials

Long division of a polynomial by a binomial is carried out in essentially the same manner as long division of two integers with no variables:

1. Divide the highest degree term of the polynomial by the highest degree term of the binomial. Write the result above the division line.

2. Multiply this result by the divisor, and subtract the resulting binomial from the polynomial.

3. Divide the highest degree term of the remaining polynomial by the highest degree term of the binomial.

4. Repeat this process until the remaining polynomial has lower degree than the binomial.

1.4: Factoring Special Form Polynomials

Common Factors (pages 19-20)

• Example 1.4A

Definitions

• Factor: numbers we can multiply together to get another number.

• Common Factor: A factor of a number is an exact divisor of the given number or when a number is exactly divided by a divisor that divisor is known as a factor of that number.

• Greatest Common Factor: The greatest common factor is the largest possible number that divides both of the terms.​

• Factoring: Factoring is the opposite of distributing. Instead of putting numbers together we are going to take them apart. We will do this by finding out what number divides both of our terms.

1.4: Factoring Special Form Polynomials

Factor Polynomials using GCF Method:

1.4: Factoring Special Form Polynomials

​In order to factor Polynomials, you find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) and use it to find the factors.

​* The lowest power of x is your GCF for the variable part.
