Polynomials are named based on two criteria Polynomials are named based on two criteria 1. the highest exponent Polynomials are named based on two criteria 1. the highest exponent 2. the number of terms Polynomials are named based on two criteria So when given a polynomial 1. the highest exponent 2. the number of terms Polynomials are named based on two criteria So when given a polynomial 1. the highest exponent 2. the number of terms x3-4x2+3x-1 Polynomials are named based on two criteria So when given a polynomial The highest exponent is three 1. the highest exponent 2. the number of terms x3-4x2+3x-1 highest exponent Polynomials are named based on two criteria So when given a polynomial The highest exponent is three 1. the highest exponent 2. the number of terms and the number of terms is four x3-4x2+3x-1 1 2 3 4 four terms Here's two charts that will aid us in naming 0 1 2 3 4 5 Exponent constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial 0 1 2 3 4 5 Exponent constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic Name the polynomial x2-5 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Quadratic Binomial Quadratic Monomial Linear Binomial Linear Monomial 0 1 2 3 4 5 Exponent constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic x3-5x+1 Match the polynomial with the name 5 x5 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Cubic Trinomial ? Constant Monomial ? Quintic Monomial ? 0 1 2 3 4 5 Exponent constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic x-5 Match the polynomial with the name 2x4-x3 x1 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Linear Binomial ? Quartic Binomial ? Linear Monomial ? |
