POLYNOMIALan algebraic expression that represents a sum of ONE or MORE TERMS containing whole number exponents on the variables
Remember the parts of a term?
NUMERICAL COEFFICIENTThe number in an algebraic term.LITERAL COEFFICIENTA letter used to represent a numberEXAMPLES:4 xNumerical coefficient          Literal coefficient45 abc Numerical coefficient          Literal coefficient
Examples:3xy2x + yx2 – 2x + 62x3 - x2  + 4x - 10
NOT A POLYNOMIALVariable inside the radical sign√ 3x4x + √ 7y5a – 3b + √ c
NOT A POLYNOMIALNegative exponents.2x + y -23x4 y-1 z3m-3 + 8
NOT A POLYNOMIALVariable in the denominator__2x + y__z__1__2x
NOT A POLYNOMIAL..If there is/are….Variable/s inside the radical signNegative exponent/s.Variable/s in the denominator
CLASSIFICATION OF POLYNOMIALS:MonomialBinomialTrinomial
MONOMIALa polynomial with ONE TERM
Examples:x                  -2x xyz           5x2 y3 z   4                 -4
BINOMIALa polynomial with TWO TERMS
Examples:x + y          2x – 3y 4a + b2     a3 – bc2d-3m – n       m +  _1_                              2
TRINOMIALa polynomial with THREETERMS
Examples:x + y + z2x – 3y – 4za3 – 4b + c4
Classify the following polynomials:1) binomial2) monomial3) Trinomial4) monomial5) NOT a polynomial1)   2x + 32)  a2 b45x – 3y + 4z -8 3a – 2b -3
REVIEW:What is a polynomial? How can we differentiate a polynomial     from not a polynomial?What are the two parts of a term?What are the classifications of a polynomial? Differentiate each classification.
DEGREE of a polynomial:The DEGREE of a term that has only one variable is the EXPONENT of that variable.Examples:
DEGREE of a polynomial:The DEGREEof a polynomial that has only one variable is the HIGHEST EXPONENTappearing in any of the terms.Examples:
DEGREE of a polynomial:The DEGREE of a term that has only one variable is the EXPONENT of that variable.Examples:
DEGREE of a polynomial:The DEGREE of a polynomial in more than one variable is the highest sum of the exponentsExamples:
Polynimial is written in desccendingorder, the coefficient of the first term is the leading coefficient.
