Name Number of Terms Example Monomial 1 (mono implies one) 4 x² Binomial 2(bi implies two) 4 x² + 3 x Trinomial 3(tri implies three) 4 x² + 3 x + 5 The expression 4 x² is a monomial because it has one term. The expression 4 x² + 3 x is a binomial because it has two terms. The expression 4 x² +3 x + 5 is a trinomial because it has three terms. All three expressions can be called polynomials.

MONOMIAL 1 TERM

BINOMIAL 2 TERMS

Add: (2 x 2 - 4) + (x 2 + 3 x - 3) MATCH UP LIKE TERMS!

Try it horizontally (ACROSS): (6 x + 2 y + 9) + (-3 x - 5 y - 8)

Find the missing terms: (4 x + __) + (2 x + 3) = 6 x + 5 (x 2+6 x+7) + (3 x 2+ __ +1) = 4 x 2+13 x+8

Simplify: (2 x 2 - 4) - (x 2 + 3 x - 3) Tip: Remember to distribute the NEGATIVE

1. (3 x 2 - 1) - (2 x 2 + 7 x) 2. (-6 m - 2 q + 8) - (2 m + 2 q + 7) 3. (3 x 2 + 2 y 2 + 7) - (4 x 2 - 2 y 2 - 8) 4. (3 x 2 - 4 x + 6) - (-2 x 2 - 3 x - 9) 5. 6 x 2 - (4 x 2 - 20) - (-30)
