I .Background Information:
POLYNOMIALS - A polynomial is the sum or difference of algebraic expressions
(consisting of constants and variables). Common variables used are x and y. Each algebraic
expression in a polynomial is called a term.
Polynomials can be named based on the number of terms
II. Example/ Illustration :
Exponent
Coefficient 3x 5 Variable
− 2x has exactly one term, this is called a monomial
4 has exactly one term, a constant, and is also a monomial
x + 1 has exactly two terms, x and 1, this is called a binomial
x2 + 3x − 4 has 3 terms x2, 3x, and – 4, this is called a trinomial
x3 - 3x2 + 6x - 15 has 4 terms, polynomials with 4 or more terms are generally
referred to as multinomials.
III.Question / Problem :

3x 3 has terms and is called a
2x 3 + y 2 –2 x +y+3 has terms and is called a
x +1 has terms and is called a
x 2 + 3x − 4 has terms and is called a
−5 has terms and is called a
