What is the degree of the polynomial 2x plus 5?
The degree of the polynomial 2x + 5 is 1. The highest power of x is x1, i.e. 2x1 + 5x0, hence the designation of first degree.
What do you multiply after you divide a polynomial by a monomial?
You multiplay the consents and who cares about math, go out and party! the world will end in 2012 anyway!To divide a polynomial by a monomial you don't need to multiply the polynomial.
What is polynomial division?
That means that you divide one polynomial by another polynomial. Basically, if you have polynomials "A" and "B", you look for a polynomial "C" and a remainder "R", such that: B x C + R = A ... such that the remainder has a lower degree than polynomial "B", the polynomial by which you are dividing. For example, if you divide by a polynomial of degree 3, the remainder must be of degree 2 or less.
What are two polynomial functions whose quotient will have the same degree as the divisor?
For example, if you divide a polynomial of degree 2 by a polynomial of degree 1, you'll get a result of degree 1. Similarly, you can divide a polynomial of degree 4 by one of degree 2, a polynomial of degree 6 by one of degree 3, etc.
How is a rational function the ratio of two polynomial functions?
That's the definition of a "rational function". You simply divide a polynomial by another polynomial. The result is called a "rational function".
After you divide a polynomial by a monomial you can check your answer by multiplying it by the original?
monomial
Explain the steps used to divide a polynomial by a polynomial?
You can find explanation and examples here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_division
Is 4 - 3x plus 5x2 a polynomial?
Yes. If you add, subtract or multiply (but not if you divide) any two polynomials, you will get a polynomial.
What does it mean for a polynomial to be closed under addition subtraction and multiplication?
It means that you can do any of those operations, and again get a number from the set - in this case, a polynomial. Note that if you divide a polynomial by another polynomial, you will NOT always get a polynomial, so the set of polynomials is not closed under division.
How do you factor each polynomial by its GCF?
Divide the GCF into each to get the other factors.
When you divide polynomials is it a binomial or a monomial?
If the quotient of a certain binomial and 20x2 is is the polynomial
What is the remainder when 3 is synthetically divide into the polynomial -x2 plus 5x - 9?
-3
