Polynomials 10/31 Objective: Students will be able to classify polynomials. Students will be able to simplify. Students will be able evaluate polynomials. Standards: NC. M 2. A-APR. 1 Operations of polynomials Essential Question: Are you able to classify other things like you classify polynomials? LESSON Classifying Polynomials An expression which is the sum of terms of the form a x k where k is a nonnegative integer is a polynomial. Polynomials are usually written in standard form. Polynomial in standard form: 2 x 3 + 5 x 2 – 4 x + 7 Leading coefficient Degree Constant term The degree of each term of a polynomial is the exponent of the variable. The degree of a polynomial is the largest degree of its terms. When a polynomial is written in standard form, the coefficient of the first term is the leading coefficient.
