Review Algebra I
Unit 1 Lesson 10: More Practice / Review
Objectives – By the end of class I will be able to…
o Correctly divide any given polynomial by a monomial
o Explain in my own word the process that should be used when dividing
polynomials by monomials
Do Now: Simplify each of the following expressions.
𝑥 2 𝑦5
a. 𝑥 5 (𝑦 3 ) = b. = c. (3𝑎2𝑏𝑐 4 )2 = d. 5𝑥 2 𝑦(2𝑥 4 + 𝑦 −3 ) =
𝑥𝑦 4
e. (𝑦 2 + 4𝑦 10 ) − (𝑦 10 − 𝑦 2 ) = f. 4𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 6 + 10𝑥 − 𝑥 2 =
52𝑥 6 65
g. = h. 2𝑎𝑏3 (4𝑏6 + 3𝑎2 − 2𝑎𝑏) = i. = j. (2𝑥 2𝑦𝑧 3 )7 =
13𝑥 −7 63
Dividing Polynomials by Monomials
Example:
Steps to Follow: 1. Divide each term in the numerator by the monomial in the
denominator.
2. Remember to divide the coefficients and subtract the
exponents.
