  1. 8.1 Multiplying MonomialsPart 1 Objective: To be able to multiply monomials.

  2. Monomials A monomial is an expression that is a number, a variable, or a product of a number and one or more variables. (Pretty much, it’s anything that is alone or connected ONLY by multiplication!) 7 9xy -13xy2z 0 -3 No variables in the denominator!

  3. Monomial? Example 1: Determine whether each expression is a monomial. EXPLAIN! • x + y • m • y2z3

  4. Multiplying Monomials If the bases are the same and you’re multiplying, you add your exponents. Ex: x9= x∙x∙x∙x∙x∙x∙x∙x∙x x4 ∙ x5

  5. Multiplying Monomials Example 2: Bring the coefficients to the front and group the ‘like’ bases together. a. b. c. 23∙22 = 23+2 = 25 x2∙x4 = x2+4 = x6 = (2∙5)(n5+2) 2n5∙5n2 = (2∙5)(n5∙n2) = 10n7

  6. Multiplying Monomials Example 3: a. b. c. (-2x3)(1.5x-2) = (-2∙1.5)x3+-2 = -3x1 = -3x = (-1∙4)x5+7 = -4x12 (-x5)(4x7) (5m-2)(2.6m4) = (5∙2.6)m-2+4 = 13m2

  7. Multiplying Monomials Example 4: a6b3∙a-2b-2 = a6∙a-2∙b3∙b-2 = a4∙b1 = a4b

  8. Multiplying Monomials Area = length ∙ width Example 5: Express the area of the figure as a monomial. 3fg4 5f4g3 Area = (5f4g3)(3fg4) = (5∙3) (f4∙f) (g3∙g4) = 15f5g7 units2

  9. Checking for Understanding • Simplify: 9–1∙97∙9–2 • Simplify: –3x2(6x3 + 2x) • Simplify: (6d8)(–8d9)(6d)
