Best Answer

a simplified polynomial is a algebraic equation/expression with variables and constants that can can be written as a sum of terms. Simplified form is the opposite of factored form

P(x) = ( 2x - 3)( x+4 ) Is a factored form - product of 2 factors.

Simplify P(x) by using the distributive property:

P(x) = 2x2 +8x - 3x -12

P(x) = 2x2 + 5x - 12 simplified : a sum of terms!

How do you know if you have simplified a polynomial correctly?

I suppose you mean factoring the polynomial. You can check by multiplying the factors - the result should be the original polynomial.


How is the degree of a simplified polynomial found?

The degree of a polynomial is equal to the highest degree of its terms. In the case that there is no exponent, the degree is 1. If there is no variable, the degree is 0.

Is the degree of the polynomial 3x4 plus 4x3 - 3x4 plus 5x plus 1 is 3?

Yes. Before using the polynomial for any productive purpose, it would have to be cleaned up and simplified. In that process, the +3x4 and -3x4 would go away, and the highest-order term remaining would be the 4x3.
