Polynomial: a monomial or the of monomials, each called a of the polynomial. Binomial: the sum of monomials. Trinomial: the sum of monomials. Degree of a monomial: the sum of the of all its variables. A nonzero constant term has a degree of ________. Degree of a polynomial: the degree of any term in the polynomial. Polynomials are named based on their degree. Example 1: State whether each expression is a polynomial. If it is a polynomial, find the degree and determine whether it is a monomial, binomial, or trinomial. Expression Is it a polynomial? Degree Monomial, binomial, or

trinomial? a.) 4y – 5xz Yes; 4y – 5xz is the sum of 4y and -5xz 2 Binomial b.) –6.5

c.) 7a-3 + 9b

d.) 6x3 + 4x + x + 3

Standard form of a polynomial: the terms are in order from degree. Leading coefficient: in form, the coefficient of the term. Example 2: Write each polynomial in standard form. Identify the leading coefficient. a) 9x2 + 3x6

Algebra 1 Section 8.5 Day 1 Notes: Using the Distributive Property (GCF) Warm-Up List the factors of each of the numbers. Then circle the greatest (biggest) one they have in common. 1) 15, 20, 45 2) 36, 18, 6 3) 21, 49, 14 4) 8, 24, 4 Factoring: to express a polynomial as the product of monomials and polynomials.

GCF Basics To find the GCF of a number:

1. Ask yourself if the number will divide into the other numbers.

a. If it does, that’s your GCF!

b. If it doesn’t, keep looking. Think of (or list) factors of the ____ number.

Of those factors, find the number that will divide into all the numbers.

Example 1: Find the GCF of the numbers. a) 6, 18, 14 b) 24, 3, 12 c) 8, 24, 28 To find the GCF of a variable:

1. Take the number of variables possible.

2. If even one term does a variable, don’t include any variables in your GCF.

Example 2: Find the GCF of the variables. a) x6 + x2 + x7 b) 1 + x4 + x9 c) x + x4 + x3 - x2

Things to remember:

• Make sure your polynomial is in first.

• If your leading coefficient is , make your negative.

Example 1: Use the Distributive Property to factor each polynomial. a) 15x + 25x2 b) 4x2y2 + 2x3y3 + 8xy4 c) 9p3 + 6p6 - 12

LANDSCAPING A landscaping company has been commissioned to design a triangular flower bed for a mall entrance. The final dimensions of the flower bed have not been determined, but the company knows that the height will be two feet less than the base. The area of the flower bed can be represented by the equation A = 1

2𝑏2 – b.

20. PHYSICAL SCIENCE Mr. Alim’s science class launched a toy rocket from ground level with an initial upward velocity of 60

feet per second. The height h of the rocket in feet above the ground after t seconds is modeled by the equation h = 60t – 16𝑡2. How long was the rocket in the air before it returned to the ground?

21. PHYSICS According to legend, Galileo dropped objects of different weights from the so-called “leaning tower” of Pisa while

developing his formula for free falling objects. The relationship that he discovered was that the distance d an object falls after t seconds is given by d = 16𝑡2 (ignoring air resistance). This relationship can be found in the equation h = 4t – 16𝑡2, where h is the height of an object thrown upward from ground level at a rate of 32 feet per second. Solve the equation for h = 0.

22. SWIMMING POOL The area A of a rectangular swimming pool is given by the equation A = 12w – 𝑤2, where w is the width of

one side. Write an expression for the other side of the pool. 23. CONSTRUCTION Unique Building Company is constructing a triangular roof truss for a building. The workers assemble the

truss with the dimensions shown on the diagram below. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, find the length of the sides of the truss. 24. VERTICAL JUMP Your vertical jump height is measured by subtracting your standing reach height from the height of the

highest point you can reach by jumping without taking a running start. Typically, NBA players have vertical jump heights of up to 34 inches. If an NBA player jumps this high, his height h in inches above his standing reach height after t seconds can be modeled by h = 162t – 192𝑡2. Solve the equation for h = 0 and interpret the solution. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

A model for the height h in feet of an object dropped from an initial height of h0 feet is h = –16t2 + h0 , where t is the time in seconds after the object is dropped. Use this model to determine approximately how long it took for the book to reach the ground.

25. PICTURE FRAMING Mikaela placed a frame around a print that measures 10 inches by 10 inches. The area of just the frame itself is 69 square inches. What is the width of the frame?

26. CONSTRUCTION The area of Liberty Township’s square playground is represented by the trinomial 𝑥2 – 10x + 25. Write an expression using the variable x that represents the perimeter.

27. AMUSEMENT PARKS Funtown Downtown wants to build a vertical motion ride where the passengers are launched straight

upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. The ride car’s height h in feet after t seconds is h = 96t – 16𝑡2. How many seconds after launch would the car reach 144 feet?

28. BUSINESS Saini Sprinkler Company installs irrigation systems. To track monthly costs C and revenues R, they use the following

functions, where x is the number of systems they install. R(x) = 8𝑥2+ 12x + 4 C(x) = 7𝑥2+ 20x – 12

The monthly profit can be found by subtracting cost from revenue. P(x) = R(x) – C(x)

Find a function to project monthly profit and use it to find the break-even point where the profit is zero. 29. GEOMETRY Holly can make an open-topped box out of a square piece of cardboard by cutting 3-inch squares from the corners

and folding up the sides to meet. The volume of the resulting box is V = 3𝑥2– 36x + 108, where x is the original length and width of the cardboard.

a. Factor the polynomial expression from the volume equation.

b. What is the volume of the box if the original length of each

side of the cardboard was 14 inches? c. What is the original side length of the cardboard when the

volume of the box is 27 in3?
