Polynomials

Polynomials are mathematical expressions that contain variables and their powers, and can be combined using addition, subtraction, and multiplication. They are named based on the number of terms, such as monomial, binomial, and trinomial. Polynomials are also classified based on their highest degree, such as quadratic, cubic, sextic, and are written in standard form by ordering terms from greatest to least degree.

Names according to the degree
Degree is the highest exponent or
the highest sum of exponents of
the variables in a term.
Example:
9x + 6x2 - 5x3 - 4
Write polynomial in standard form, ordering terms from
greatest to least according to degree.

- 5x3 + 6x2 + 9x -4
The coefficient of the term with
The degree of the the highest degree is known as
polynomial is 3 the leading coefficient ( -5 )
Example:
-2xy + 6x2y - 5x2y2 + 4x3y2
Write polynomial in standard form, ordering terms from
greatest to least according to degree.

4x y
3 2 - 5x y
2 2 + 6x y
2 - 2xy
The degree of the The leading
polynomial is 3 + 2 = 5 coefficient is 4
