1. Section 3.3 X of Polynomial Functions

2. Let’s first consider multiplying monomials. Rule: _________________________________________________________________ Product Property of Exponents: ________ Example: Multiply To multiply monomials, mult the coefficients and add the exponent

3. Rule: To multiply a monomial ( __ term) and polynomial ( __ or _____ terms) use the ___________________ to _______________________________________________. 1 Distributive property 2 more mult the monomial times each term in the poly Example: Multiply Must be written in standard form

4. Rule: ­­­__________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ To multiply 2 polynomials, multiply each term in the first polynomial times each term in the second polynomial Example: Multiply

5. **Special Case: When multiplying two binomials together, use F______ O______ I______ L­­______ isrt ast nner utter Looks so nice we write it twice

6. Note: The binomials in the last example are examples _______________. Two binomials are conjugates if _________________________________________. When multiplying conjugates, the outside and inside terms cancel each other out. conjugates The terms are the same but opposite signs
