ALGEBRA - study of relations and properties among quantities using symbols to

represent number, variables, or entities.

BASIC TERMS IN ALGEBRA

a) Numerical Coefficients / Constants
- represents a fixed value
- Numbers
- 9, 10, -3, ½, 0.5
b) Literal Coefficients / Variables
- represents any number
- letters or symbols
- x, y, z, a, b, c
Examples:
Identify the constants and the variables.
1) 2 – b
2) ½ xy
3) 2(m + n)
4) 3(2x – 5y)
5) 2/h
c) Power of Expression - any expression of the form xn, where x is the base and n
is the exponent
- xn = x • x • x •… • x
- x is used as a factor n times

d. Algebraic Term – a product of a number and a literal number

Ex: x – 1 term x + 4 – 2 terms
If we add or subtract two or more algebraic terms, we obtain algebraic expression.
e. Algebraic Expression – any combination of numbers, letters and symbols that
applies one or more of the four fundamental operations
which when taken as a whole represents a number.
Ex: 10 + 3x 16m2 – 5mn 2b/3 + b

e. Similar terms - terms with the same literal coefficient and same exponent
in all of the terms.
Ex: ½x and 2x
 f. Dissimilar terms – algebraic terms with different literal coefficients
Ex: 9a, 5y, z – dissimilar terms

Classification of Algebraic Expression

1. Monomial – an algebraic expression that has only one term
Ex: 8x, -4b, a3b2
2. Binomial – an algebraic expression that is composed of two terms
Ex: 4y + 10 , w2 – 10
3. Trinomial - an algebraic expression that is composed of three terms
Ex: a +b + c
4. Polynomial – consist of many terms in which the exponents are whole
numbers
Ex: 12x ; 45x2y3
*The expression 3x3 + 2/x + 4, 3 x +5x – 6 and 7x-3 +2x-5 are not considered
polynomial since the 1st expression has a negative exponent when 2/x is translate
to 2x-1, the 2nd one has a term 3 x that can be translated to 3x1/2 and the last one
has negative exponent. The polynomial should have no negative nor radical or
fraction exponent.

A. Classify the following algebraic expressions if it is a monomial, binomial,

trinomial and polynomial.
a. 3xy2 -3xy + x2
b. x4-8x3 +20 x2 + 7x - 13
c. 5f - 20
d. h2
e. h2-6a-7

B. Tell if the following algebraic expressions are polynomials or not.

a. 2a3 + 2 + 8
a
b. 6x-4 +2x – 15

c. 5g2 + 9g – 6

d. 11b – 3ab + 4

Degree of a Term with One Variable, Term with Two or More Variables and
Polynomials

1. The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of that variable.
Ex: 7y5 has degree 5

2. The degree of a term with two or more variables is the sum of the exponents of all
the variables.
Ex: 2ab – has degree 2 because the exponent of x is 1 as well as the y, 1 + 1 = 2

3. The degree of a polynomial that contains one variable is the highest exponent
appearing in any of the terms
Ex: 10x4 + 5x3 –x2 - 5x + 8 has the degree 4
4. A polynomial with a non-zero constant term, like 10, has a zero degree. The
constant 0 is also a polynomial but without a degree.
Degree of a Polynomial - degree of its term with the highest degree
Give the degree of the following algebraic expressions.
1. 9y2 +6y +10
2. 3abc
3. -56b4+ 18ab3 -30b2+20b
4. 28m -25mn -10m
5. 25z
