Polynomials: One Variable

The video tutorial covers the basics of algebra, focusing on polynomials. It explains the definition of polynomials in one variable, their components such as terms, coefficients, and degree, and how to classify them based on the number of terms and degree. The tutorial also discusses the concept of constant and zero polynomials, and provides examples to illustrate these concepts.
