Question

Write the polynomial in standard form. Then name the polynomial based on its degree and number of terms

Answer 1

which polynomial are we looking at?

Answer 2

\[1. 2-11x^2-8x+6x^2\]

Answer 3

thats a 2 NOT a 1.2 srry

Answer 4

degree is 2

Answer 5

we combine all the like terms together, do you know how to do that?

Answer 6

for the most part

Answer 7

lemme try and u tell me if i got it

Answer 8

ok :)

Answer 9

16x^4+8x+2?

Answer 10

x^4?

Answer 11

close...close....

Answer 12

positive 8?

Answer 13

6x^2 -11x^2 -8x +2

Answer 14

-5x^2 -8x +2 would be the gooder form :)

Answer 15

how many terms do we see? a term is everything between a + or a - sign...

Answer 16

i hate matthe

Answer 17

4?

Answer 18

im probably not being clear enough, but that was a good guess :)

Answer 19

-5x^2 <- 1 term
-8x <- 1 term
+2 <- 1 term

how many terms are there?

Answer 20

3

Answer 21

oh you ment in the simplified 1.. ohhh 0-0

Answer 22

3 is the number of wheels on a tricycle... this is a trinomial

Answer 23

yes.. the part that gets me is the math and

Answer 24

if its a quad or cubic

Answer 25

what is the highest number exponent you see in the our trinomial?

Answer 26

2

Answer 27

then the degree is 2 :) thats all there is to that...

and quadratic is just a fancy latin name for "we squared it" which means it has a 2 degree.

Answer 28

so cubed would be?

Answer 29

a cube is 3 diminsional... so a degree of 3

Answer 30

power of 2 is squared. cubed is power of 3.

Answer 31

ok thanks thats simple enough 0-0

Answer 32

And when they want the degree you just find the term with the largest exponent. The exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

Answer 33

try this one:

4x^5 +5x -2 how many terms are there?

Answer 34

3

Answer 35

very good :) and 3 is a tri...??

Answer 36

YEASH )-)

Answer 37

So what kind of polynomial is it?

Answer 38

trinomial

Answer 39

yay!!

Answer 40

with degree of?

Answer 41

and its degree is?

Answer 42

5

Answer 43

Yep.

Answer 44

hoorah!!

Answer 45

can you two be mah math teacher???

Answer 46

Try this one on for size.

3(x+2) + x^2(x-4) + 5x

Answer 47

lol.... :)

Answer 48

NOOOO. it looks like it has been distributed?

Answer 49

It needs some distribution and some combining of terms yes.

Answer 50

way to burst a bubble lol ;)

Answer 51

IKR. i dont need that now

Answer 52

Well he wanted me to be his math teacher.. that's what he gets! ;p

Answer 53

LOL!!

Answer 54

It's very easy to distribute. You'll be surprised at how fast it is. Give it a try.

Answer 55

I'll do the first distribution for you.
3(x+2) = 3x+6

Answer 56

noo. that is unnesesary (fail spelling) work for me :(

Answer 57

No, it's good practice.

Answer 58

If you practice you can do it easily.

Answer 59

good practice is the worksheet i need to do

Answer 60

Ok, then do your other homework, then come back and do it ;p

Answer 61

lol well help meh still pls :)

Answer 62

Of course.

Answer 63

Find the degree of the monomial.
6x^8y^5

Answer 64

it would be 8

Answer 65

right.

Answer 66

13

Answer 67

if a term has more than one variable you have to add the exponents.

Answer 68

go away myininaya. you not mah teacher. :P

Answer 69

oohk

Answer 70

so 13

Answer 71

Yep

Answer 72

aaaalrighty then

Answer 73

moar

Answer 74

Write the polynomial in standard form
4g-g^3+3g^2-2

Answer 75

just combine terms?

Answer 76

There are no terms there you can combine. They all have different degrees

Answer 77

So you just have to put them in order from highest degree to lowest.

Answer 78

Each term has a degree, and the degree of the polynomial is the highest degree of all of the terms

Answer 79

Standard form means that all like terms are combined, and the terms are in order of degree from highest to lowest.

Answer 80

lemme try it

Answer 81

-g^3+3g^2+4g+-2?

Answer 82

??

Answer 83

Yes except +-2 is just -2

Answer 84

alrighty then

Answer 85

Match the expression with its name.
6x^3-9x+3

Answer 86

cubic tri???

Answer 87

i will go away

Answer 88

trinomial yes.

Answer 89

HAY. 1 more paper 7 questions?

Answer 90

Goes quick when you know what you're doing doesn't it ;p

Answer 91

nvm

Answer 92

You're done?
