What is polynomial multiplication?

Back

Polynomial multiplication involves multiplying two or more polynomials together to form a new polynomial. This is done by distributing each term in the first polynomial to every term in the second polynomial.

What is the distributive property in polynomial multiplication?

Back

The distributive property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. In polynomial multiplication, this means distributing each term of one polynomial across all terms of another polynomial.

What is polynomial division?

Back

Polynomial division is the process of dividing one polynomial by another, similar to long division with numbers. The result can be a quotient and a remainder.

How do you divide polynomials using long division?

Back

1. Arrange the polynomials in descending order. 2. Divide the leading term of the dividend by the leading term of the divisor. 3. Multiply the entire divisor by this result and subtract from the dividend. 4. Repeat until the degree of the remainder is less than the degree of the divisor.

What is the degree of a polynomial?

Back

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial. For example, in 4x^3 + 2x^2 - x, the degree is 3.

What is a monomial?

Back

A monomial is a polynomial with only one term, such as 3x^2 or -5.
