    Lesson 2.1: Identifying Terms, Factors, and Coefficients
    Instruction
    Guided Practice 2.1
    Example 1
    Identify each term, coefficient, and constant term of 6(x 1) x(3 2x) + 12. Classify the expression
    as a monomial, binomial, or trinomial. Determine whether it is a quadratic expression.

    1. Simplify the expression.


    The expression can be simplified by following the order of operations
    and combining like terms.
    6(x 1) x(3 2x) + 12 Original expression
    = 6x 6 x(3 2x) + 12 Distribute 6 over (x 1).
    = 6x 6 3x + 2x2 + 12 Distribute x over (3 2x).
    = 3x + 6 + 2x2 Combine like terms: 6x and 3x;
    6and 12.
    = 2x2 + 3x + 6 Rearrange terms so the powers are
    indescending order.

    2. Identify all terms.


    There are three terms in the expression: 2x2, 3x, and 6.

    3. Identify the coefficients of the variable terms.


    The numerical factor in the term 2x2 is 2, and the numerical factor in
    the term 3x is 3. Therefore, the coefficients are 2 and 3.

    4. Identify any constant terms.


    The number that is not a factor of a variable in the expression is 6;
    therefore, 6 is the constant term.

    5. Classify the expression as a monomial, binomial, or trinomial.
    The polynomial is a trinomial because it has three terms.

    6. Determine whether the expression is a quadratic expression.


    The expression is quadratic because the highest power of x in
    theexpression is 2.

    Example 2
    Translate the verbal expression take triple the difference of 12 and the square of x, then increase
    the result by the sum of 3 and x into an algebraic expression. Identify the terms, coefficients, and
    constant term(s) of the given expression. Is the expression quadratic?

    1. Translate the expression by breaking it down into pieces.


    The difference of 12 and the square of x translates to (12 x2).
    Triple this expression is 3(12 x2).
    The sum of 3 and x translates to (3 + x).
    Increasing the original expression by this sum translates to
    3(12x2)+(3 + x).

    2. Simplify the expression.


    3(12 x2) + (3 + x) Expression from the previous step
    = 36 3x2 + (3 + x) Distribute 3 over (12 x2).
    = 3x2 + x + 39 Combine like terms.
    The simplified expression is 3x2 + x + 39.

    3. Identify all terms.


    There are three terms in the expression: 3x2, x, and 39.

    Instruction
    4. Identify all coefficients.
    The numerical factor in the term 3x2 is 3, and the numerical factor
    in the term x is 1. Therefore, 3 and 1 are coefficients.

    5. Identify any constant terms.


    The number that is not a factor of a variable in the expression is 39;
    therefore, 39 is the constant term.

    6. Determine whether the expression is a quadratic expression.


    The expression is quadratic because the highest power of x is 2.

    Example 3
    A fence surrounds a park in the shape of a pentagon. The side lengths of the park in feet are given by
    the expressions 2x2, 3x + 1, 3x + 2, 4x, and 5x 3. Find an expression for the perimeter of the park.
    Identify the terms, coefficients, and constant term(s) in your expression. Is the expression quadratic?

    1. Find an expression for the perimeter of the park.


    Add like terms to find the perimeter, P.
    P = 2x2 + (3x + 1) + (3x + 2) + 4x + (5x 3) Set up the equation using
    the given expressions.
    = 2x2 + 3x + 3x + 4x + 5x + 1 + 2 3 Reorder like terms.
    = 2x2 + 15x Combine like terms.
    The expression for the parks perimeter is 2x2 + 15x.

    2. Identify all terms.


    There are two terms in this expression: 2x2 and 15x.

    3. Identify all coefficients.
    The numerical factor in the term 2x2 is 2, and the numerical factor in
    the term 15x is 15. Therefore, 2 and 15 are coefficients.

    4. Identify any constant terms.


    Every number in the expression is multiplied by a variable; therefore,
    there is no constant term.

    5. Determine whether the expression is a quadratic expression.


    The expression is quadratic because the highest power of x is 2.
