Multiplying Monomials
 Monomial-a number, a variable, or the product of a number
and one or more variables.(Cannot have negative exponent)
› Example:
› -5, ½ , 8
› 3a, a/2 (½ a)
› A2b3
Not Example:
5+a
2a/b
a+b-6
 Constants-monomials that are real numbers
› A number by itself, without a variable (Ex: 4)
When looking at the expression 103,
10 is called the
base
and 3 is called the
exponent or power.
103 means 10 • 10 • 10
103 = 1000
An algebraic expression contains:
1) one or more numbers or variables,
and
2) one or more arithmetic
operations.
Examples:
x-3

Multiplying Monomials
 To MULTIPLY powers that have the SAME BASE, just
simply ADD the exponents and leave the base the
same.
 Example:
 23 * 25 = 28
 x5 * x = x6 (x is the same as x1and 5 + 1 = 6)

expression in which:

1. Each base appears exactly once.

2. There are no powers of powers.

3. All fractions are in simplest form.

Polynomials
Polynomials
 A polynomial is a monomial or a sum of monomials.
 Types of polynomials
 Binomial: sum or difference of two monomials
 Trinomial: sum or difference of three monomials.
Degrees
 Degree of a monomial-the sum of the exponents
 Example: the degree of 8y4 is 4, the degree of 2xy2z3 is
6 (because if you add all the exponents of the
variables you get 6)
Degrees
 Degree of a polynomial-the greatest degree of any term in the
polynomial
 Find the degree of each term, the highest is the degree of the
polynomial
 Example: 4x2y2 + 3x2 + 5
 Find the degree of each term
 4x2y2 has a degree 4
 3x2 has a degree of 2
 5 has no degree
 The greatest is 4, so that’s the degree of the polynomial.
Arrange Polynomials
 Arrange Polynomials in ascending or descending
order
 Ascending-least to greatest
 Descending-greatest to least
 Example: 6x3 –12 + 5x in descending order.
 6x3 + 5x –12
Adding and
Subtracting
Polynomials
 When adding or subtracting polynomials remember to combine
LIKE TERMS.
 Example:
 (3x2 – 4x + 8) + (2x – 7x2 – 5)
 Notice which terms are alike…combine these terms. (They have
been color coded)
 3x2 – 7x2 = -4x2
 – 4x + 2x = -2x
 8–5=3
 So the answer is… -4x2 - 2x + 3
 Be sure to put the powers in descending order.
1. Add the following polynomials:
(9y - 7x + 15a) + (-3y + 8x - 8a)
Group your like terms.
9y - 3y - 7x + 8x + 15a - 8a
6y + x + 7a
2. Add the following polynomials:
(3a2 + 3ab - b2) + (4ab + 6b2)
Combine your like terms.
3a2 + 3ab + 4ab - b2 + 6b2
3a2 + 7ab + 5b2
3. Add the following polynomials
using column form:
(4x2 - 2xy + 3y2) + (-3x2 - xy + 2y2)
Line up your like terms.
4x2 - 2xy + 3y2
+ -3x2 - xy + 2y2
_________________________
x2 - 3xy + 5y2
4. Subtract the following polynomials:
(9y - 7x + 15a) - (-3y + 8x - 8a)
Rewrite subtraction as adding the opposite.
(9y - 7x + 15a) + (+ 3y - 8x + 8a)
Group the like terms.
9y + 3y - 7x - 8x + 15a + 8a
12y - 15x + 23a
5. Subtract the following polynomials:
(7a - 10b) - (3a + 4b)
Rewrite subtraction as adding
the opposite.
(7a - 10b) + (- 3a - 4b)
Group the like terms.
7a - 3a - 10b - 4b
4a - 14b
6. Subtract the following
polynomials using column form:
(4x2 - 2xy + 3y2) - (-3x2 - xy + 2y2)
Line up your like terms and add the
opposite.
4x2 - 2xy + 3y2
+ (+ 3x2 + xy - 2y2)

Examples
1. -2x2(3x2 – 7x + 10)
 Notice the –2x2 on the outside of the
parenthesis……you must distribute this.
 -2x2 * 3x2 = -6x4

 4 * 5d = 20d
 -d * d2 = -d3
 -d * -7d = 7d2
 -d * 12 = -12d

Special Products
 A. Square of a Sum: The square of a + b is the

square of a plus twice the product of a and b plus

the square of b.

Symbols: (a + b)² = (a + b)(a + b)

= a² + 2ab + b²

Example: (x + 7)² = x² + 2(x)(7) + 7²

= x² + 14x + 49
 Find each product:
 1). (4y + 5)²
2). (8c + 3d)²
 B. Square of Difference: The square of a – b is the

square of a minus twice the product of a and b

plus the square of b.

Symbols: (a – b)² = (a – b)(a – b)

= a² - 2ab + b²

Example: (x – 4)² = x² - 2(x)(4) + 4²

= x² - 8x + 16
 Find each product:
 1). (6p – 1)²
2). (5m³ - 2n)²
 C. Product of a sum and a difference: The product

of a + b and a – b is the square of a minus the

square of b.

Symbols: (a + b)(a – b) = (a – b)(a + b)

= a² - b²

Example: (x + 9)(x – 9) = x² - 9²

= x² - 81
 Find each product:
 1). (3n + 2)(3n – 2)
2). (11v – 8w²)(11v + 8w²)
Summary:
 Square of a Sum………(a + b)² = a² + 2ab +b²
 Square of a Difference…(a – b)² = a² - 2ab +b²
 Product of a Sum and a Difference …………….(a – b)(a + b) = a² - b²
Guided Practice:
 1. (a + 6)²
2. (4n – 3)(4n – 3)
 3. (8x – 5)(8x + 5)
4. (3a + 7b)(3a – 7b)
 5. (x² - 6y)²
6. (9 – p)²
7. (p + 3)(p – 4)(p – 3)(p + 4)
Examples
3. y(y – 12) + y(y + 2) + 25 = 2y(y + 5) – 15
 Distribute y, y and 2y
 y * y = y2
 y * -12 = -12y
 y * y = y2
 y * 2 = 2y
 Don’t forget the +25
 2y * y = 2y2
 2y * 5 = 10y
 Don’t forget the -15
 Now you have…….
 y2 – 12y + y2 + 2y + 25 = 2y2 + 10y –15
 Combine like terms….
 2y2 –10y + 25 = 2y2 + 10y – 15
 Now you have to solve because you have an equals sign
 Answer: y = 2
