How do you multiply monomial by a polynomial?
you foil it out.... for example take the first number or variable of the monomial and multiply it by everything in 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 does factor out a polynomial mean?
Put it into two binomilals that multipy together to create the polynomial. For example: 5K(squared)-2k-7 is factored out as: (5k+1)(-7K+1)
What is a zero of a function?
Assuming the polynomial is written in terms of "x": It means, what value must "x" have, for the polynomial to evaluate to zero? For example: f(x) = x2 - 5x + 6 has zeros for x = 2, and x = 3. That means that if you replace each "x" in the polynomial with 2, for example, the polynomial evaluates to zero.
Degree of a terms of polynomial?
The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables that appear in it.For example, the polynomial 8x2y3 + 5x - 10 has three terms. The first term has a degree of 5, the second term has a degree of 1, and the last term has a degree of 0. Therefore, the polynomial is degree five.
