2 MPMD Principles of Mathematics Unit Lesson 6 Lesson Six Concepts Introduction to polynomials Like terms Addition and subtraction of polynomials Distributive law Multiplication and division of polynomials Simplifying expressions then using substitution Polynomials Polynomials are a mathematical expression with one or more terms, in which the exponents are whole numbers and the coefficients are real numbers. Monomial is a polynomial with one term; e.g. 8 and x. Binomial is a polynomial with two terms; e.g. 4x +7 and y. Trinomial is a polynomial with three terms; e.g. 4x x 9 + and w + 7w +. Term -4x -4x is an example of a term. x is called the variable or unknown -4 is called the coefficient Adding and Subtracting Polynomials To add and/or subtract polynomials the terms must be like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same variables with the same value of exponent for each variable. Example Underline the terms that are like terms. a) x, x, 7x, y, x b) 7xy, 5x y, y x, 5xy Copyright 004, Durham Continuing Education Page of 6

Simplify. a) ( x ) b) ( a ) (x+ 7) + 4 (a ) c) ( 4w + 6w 8) ( 9w + w + 5) Solutions a) ( x ) (x+ 7) b) ( a ) The first set of brackets can be removed if there is no value or negative sign in front of the brackets. ( x ) (x + 7) 5x + + x + 7 5x + x x (a ) a+ 4 a+ If this is a plus sign the second set of brackets can also be removed. a a+ 4+ a + 7 Group like terms and add the like terms together. Distributive Law: a(b+c) ab +ac a(b-c)ab-ac where a, b, and c can be any real number Because this sign is negative the distributive law is used. c) ( 4w 6w 8) ( 9w w 5) w + 6w 8 9w w 5 4w 9w + 6w w 8 5 5w + 4w Copyright 004, Durham Continuing Education Page of 6

13 MPMD Principles of Mathematics Unit Lesson 7 Lesson Seven Concepts Introduction to algebra Solving for unknowns Checking solutions to algebraic equations Algebra Solving Equations When solving algebraic equations we must try to think of a scale always in equilibrium (balanced). It is important to keep the scale balanced at all times. What you do to one side of the equation must also be done to the other side of the equation. + + You need to get all the terms with the variable to one side and the constants (the ones with out any letters) to the other. It does not matter which side you choose for the isolating of each. Example Solve each equation algebraically.
