  1. 8.1: Adding & Subtracting Polynomials Algebra 1

  2. Vocabulary Polynomial: a monomial or the sum of monomials, each called a term of the polynomial.

  3. Vocabulary Classifying a Polynomial by the Number of Terms Monomial: one term Ex: Binomial: two terms Ex: Trinomial: three terms Ex:

  4. Finding the Degree of a Monomial and Polynomial Monomial: Single variable: Exponent is the degree Ex: , Degree is 3 Multi variable: the sum of the exponentsof all its variables. Ex: , Degree is 3 (A nonzero constant term has a degree of 0.) Polynomial: Single variable: Highest exponent is the degree Ex: , Degree is 2 Multi variable: the sum of the exponents in each term. Ex: , Degree is 15

  5. Standard Form and Leading Coefficient Standard form of a polynomial: the terms are written in order from greatest to leastdegree. Leading coefficient: when written in standard form, the coefficient of the first term.

  6. Example 1: Write answer in standard form. Add the polynomials. Then find the degree of polynomial. *Add the coefficients, leave exponents the same. a) (7y2 + 2y – 3) + (2 – 4y + 5y2)

  7. Example 1: Write answer in standard form. Add the polynomials. Then find the degree of polynomial. *Add the coefficients, leave exponents the same. b) (4x2 – 2x + 7) + (3x – 7x2– 9)

  8. Example 2: Subtract the polynomials.Then find the degree of polynomial. a) (6y2 + 8y4 – 5y) – (9y4 – 7y + 2y2)

  9. Example 2: Subtract the polynomials. Then find the degree of polynomial. b) (6n2 + 11n3 + 2n) – (4n – 3 + 5n2)

  10. Example 3: Word Problem The profit a business makes is found by subtracting the cost to produce an item C from the amount earned in sales S. The cost to produce and the sales amount could be modeled by the following equations, where x is the number of items produced. C = 100x2 + 500x – 300S = 150x2 + 450x + 200 a) Find an equation that models the profit. b) Use the above equation to predict the profit if 30 items are produced and sold.
