The degree of a polynomial is the greatest of the degrees of any
of its terms. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of
the variables. Examples: 3y2 + 5x + 7

10.1 Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

To add polynomials, combine like terms.
Examples: Add (5x3 + 6x2 + 3) + (3x3 – 12x2 – 10).Use a horizontal format.
(5x3 + 6x2 + 3) + (3x3 – 12x2 – 10)= (5x3 + 3x3 ) + (6x2 – 12x2) + (3 – 10)
Rearrange and group like terms.
= 8x3 – 6x2 – 7 Combine like terms.

Add (6x3 + 11x –21) + (2x3 + 10 – 3x) + (5x3 + x – 7x2 + 5).Use a vertical format.
6x3 + 11x – 212x3 – 3x + 10
5x3 – 7x2 + x + 5
13x3 – 7x2 + 9x – 6

descending order with like terms in
the same column.

The additive inverse of the polynomial x2 + 3x + 2 is – (x2 + 3x + 2).
This is equivalent to the additive inverse of each of the terms.
– (x2 + 3x + 2) = – x2 – 3x – 2
To subtract two polynomials, add the additive inverse of the
second polynomial to the first.
10.1 Adding and Subtracting Polynomials

Example: Add (4x2 – 5xy + 2y2) – (– x2 + 2xy – y2).
(4x2 – 5xy + 2y2) – (– x2 + 2xy – y2)
= (4x2 – 5xy + 2y2) + (x2 – 2xy + y2)
= (4x2 + x2) + (– 5xy – 2xy) + (2y2 + y2)
= 5x2 – 7xy + 3y2
Rewrite the subtraction as the
addition of the additive inverse.
Rearrange and group like terms.

Let P(x) = 2x2 – 3x + 1 and R(x) = – x3 + x + 5.
Examples: Find P(x) + R(x).P(x) + R(x) = (2x2 – 3x + 1) + (– x3 + x + 5)

To multiply a polynomial by a monomial,
use the distributive property and the rule for
multiplying exponential expressions.
Examples:. Multiply: 2x(3x2 + 2x – 1).
= 6x3 + 4x2 – 2x = 2x(3x2
) + 2x(2x) + 2x(–1)
10.2 Multiplying Polynomials

Multiply: – 3x2y(5x2 – 2xy + 7y2).
= – 3x2y(5x2 ) – 3x2y(– 2xy) – 3x2y(7y2)
= – 15x4y + 6x3y2 – 21x2y3
10.2 Multiplying Polynomials

To multiply two polynomials, apply the
distributive property.
Example: Multiply: (x – 1)(2x2 + 7x + 3).= (x – 1)(2x2) + (x – 1)(7x) + (x – 1)(3)= 2x3 – 2x2 + 7x2 – 7x + 3x – 3= 2x3 + 5x2 – 4x – 3
10.2 Multiplying Polynomials

Example: Multiply: (x – 1)(2x2 + 7x + 3).
Two polynomials can also be multiplied using a vertical
format.

To multiply two binomials use a method called FOIL,
which is based on the distributive property. The letters
of FOIL stand for First, Outer, Inner, and Last.
1. Multiply the first terms.
3. Multiply the inner terms.
4. Multiply the last terms.
5. Add the products.2. Multiply the outer terms.
6. Combine like terms.
10.2 Multiplying Polynomials

Examples: Multiply: (2x + 1)(7x – 5).
= 2x(7x) + 2x(–5) + (1)(7x) + (1)(– 5)
= 14x2 – 10x + 7x – 5
= 14x2 – 3x – 5

The multiply the sum and difference of two terms,
use this pattern:
= a2 – ab + ab – b2
square of the first termsquare of the second term
10.3 Special Cases

Examples: (3x + 2)(3x – 2)= (3x)2 – (2)2
= 9x2 – 4
(x + 1)(x – 1)= (x)2 – (1)2
= x2 – 1

Examples: Multiply: (2x – 2)2 .= (2x)2 + 2(2x)(– 2) + (– 2)2
= 4x2 – 8x + 4
Multiply: (x + 3y)2 .= (x)2 + 2(x)(3y) + (3y)2
= x2 + 6xy + 9y2
10.3 Special Cases
19
The simplest method of factoring a polynomial is to factor out the greatest common factor (GCF) of each term.
Example: Factor 18x3 + 60x.
GCF = 6x18x3 + 60x = 6x (3x2) + 6x (10) Apply the distributive law
to factor the polynomial.
6x (3x2 + 10) = 6x (3x2) + 6x (10) = 18x3 + 60x
Check the answer by multiplication.
Find the GCF.
= 6x (3x2 + 10)
10.4 Factoring
20
Example: Factor 4x2 – 12x + 20.
Therefore, GCF = 4.
4x2 – 12x + 20 = 4x2 – 4 · 3x + 4 · 5
4(x2 – 3x + 5) = 4x2 – 12x + 20
Check the answer.= 4(x2 – 3x + 5)
10.4 Factoring
21
A common binomial factor can be factored out of certain expressions.
Example: Factor the expression 5(x + 1) – y(x + 1).
5(x + 1) – y(x + 1) = (5 – y)(x + 1)
(5 – y)(x + 1) = 5(x + 1) – y(x + 1)
Check.
10.4 Factoring
22
A difference of squares can be factored
using the formula
Example: Factor x2 – 9y2. = (x)2 – (3y)2
= (x + 3y)(x – 3y)
Write terms as perfect
squares.
Use the
formula.
a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b).
x2 – 9y2
10.4 Factoring
23
The same method can be used to factor any expression which can be written as a difference of squares.
Example: Factor 4(x + 1)2 – 25y 4.
= (2(x + 1))2 – (5y2)2
= [(2(x + 1)) + (5y2)][(2(x + 1)) – (5y2)]
= (2x + 2 + 5y2)(2x + 2 – 5y2)
4(x + 1)2 – 25y 4
10.4 Factoring
24
Some polynomials can be factored by grouping terms to produce a common binomial factor.
= (2x + 3)y – (2x + 3)2
= (2xy + 3y) – (4x + 6) Group terms.
Examples: Factor 2xy + 3y – 4x – 6.
Factor each pair of terms.
= (2x + 3)( y – 2) Factor out the common binomial.
2xy + 3y – 4x – 6
10.4 Factoring
25
Factor 2a2 + 3bc – 2ab – 3ac.
= 2a2 – 2ab + 3bc – 3ac
= (2a2 – 2ab) + (3bc – 3ac)
= 2a(a – b) + 3c(b – a)
Rearrange terms.
Group terms.
Factor.
= 2a(a – b) – 3c(a – b) b – a = – (a – b).
= (2a – 3c)(a – b) Factor.
2a2 + 3bc – 2ab – 3ac
10.4 Factoring
26
To factor a trinomial of the form x2 + bx + c, express the trinomial as the product of two binomials. For example,
x2 + 10x + 24 = (x + 4)(x + 6).
10.4 Factoring
27
One method of factoring trinomials is based on reversing the FOIL process.
Example: Factor x2 + 3x + 2. = (x + a)(x + b)
Express the trinomial as a product of two binomials with leading term x and unknown constant terms a and b.
= x2
FApply FOIL to multiply the binomials.
= x2 + (a + b) x + ab Since ab = 2 and a + b = 3, it follows that a = 1 and b = 2.
= x2 + (1 + 2) x + 1 · 2
Therefore, x2 + 3x + 2 = (x + 1)(x + 2).
O I L + ax + bx + ab
x2 + 3x + 2
10.4 Factoring
28
Example: Factor x2 – 8x + 15. = (x + a)(x + b)
(x – 3)(x – 5) = x2 – 5x – 3x + 15
x2 – 8x + 15 = (x – 3)(x – 5).
Therefore a + b = – 8
Check:
= x2 + (a + b)x + ab
It follows that both a and b are negative.
= x2 – 8x + 15.
and ab = 15.
10.4 Factoring
29
Example: Factor x2 + 13x + 36. = (x + a)(x + b)
Check: (x + 4)(x + 9)
Therefore a and b are two positive factors of 36 whose sum is 13.
x2 + 13x + 36
= x2 + 9x + 4x + 36 = x2 + 13x + 36.
= (x + 4)(x + 9)
= x2 + (a + b) x + ab
10.4 Factoring
30
Example: Factor 4x3 – 40x2 + 100x.
= 4x(x2) – 4x(10x) + 4x(25) The GCF is 4x.
= 4x(x2 – 10x + 25) Use distributive property to factor out the GCF.
= 4x(x – 5)(x – 5) Factor the trinomial.
4x(x – 5)(x – 5) = 4x(x2 – 5x – 5x + 25)
= 4x(x2 – 10x + 25)
= 4x3 – 40x2 + 100x
4x3 – 40x2 + 100x
Check:
10.4 Factoring
31
Example: Factor 2x2 + 5x + 3.
= (2x + a)(x + b)
= 2x2 + (a + 2b)x + ab
For some a and b.
2x2 + 5x + 3 = (2x + 3)(x + 1)
Check: (2x + 3)(x + 1) = 2x2 + 2x + 3x + 3 = 2x2 + 5x + 3.
2x2 + 5x + 3
10.4 Factoring
32
Example: Factor 4x2 – 12x + 5.
This polynomial factors as (x + a)(4x + b) or (2x + a)(2x + b).
4x2 – 12x + 5 = (2x –1)(2x – 5)
The middle term –12x equals either (4a + b) x or (2a + 2b) x. Since a and b cannot both be positive, they must both be negative.
Since ab = + 5, a and b have the same sign.
a = –1, b = – 5 or a = 1 and b = 5.
10.4 Factoring
33
Trinomials which are quadratic in form are factored like quadratic trinomials.
Example: Factor 3x 4 + 28x2 + 9.
= 3u2 + 28u + 9
= (3x2 + 1)(x2 + 9)
= (3u + 1)(u + 9)
Let u = x2.
Factor.
Replace u by x2.
Many trinomials cannot be factored.
Example: Factor x2 + 3x + 5.
Let x2 + 3x + 5 = (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab.
The trinomial x2 + 3x + 5 cannot be factored.
Then a + b = 3 and ab = 5. This is impossible.
3x 4 + 28x2 + 9
34
Factor by Grouping Example 2: FACTOR: 6mx – 4m + 3rx – 2r Factor the first two terms: 6mx – 4m = 2m (3x - 2) Factor the last two terms: + 3rx – 2r = r (3x - 2) The green parentheses are the same so it’s the
common factor Now you have a common factor
(3x - 2) (2m + r)
35
Example: The length of a rectangle is (x + 5) ft. The width
is (x – 6) ft. Find the area of the rectangle in terms of
the variable x.
A = L · W = Area
x – 6
x + 5
L = (x + 5) ft
W = (x – 6) ft
A = (x + 5)(x – 6 ) = x2 – 6x + 5x – 30
= x2 – x – 30
The area is (x2 – x – 30) ft2.
