Polynomials are named based on two criteria: Polynomials are named based on two criteria: 1. the highest exponent (degree) Polynomials are named based on two criteria: 1. the highest exponent (degree) 2. the number of terms Polynomials are named based on two criteria: So when given a polynomial 1. the highest exponent (degree) 2. the number of terms Polynomials are named based on two criteria: So when given a polynomial 1. the highest exponent (degree) 2. the number of terms x3-4x2+3x-1 Polynomials are named based on two criteria: So when given a polynomial The highest exponent (degree) is three 1. the highest exponent (degree) 2. the number of terms x3-4x2+3x-1 highest exponent Polynomials are named based on two criteria: So this is a "cubic polynomial with four terms". So when given a polynomial The highest exponent (degree) is three 1. the highest exponent (degree) 2. the number of terms and the number of terms is four x3-4x2+3x-1 1 2 3 4 four terms Here are two charts that will help us in classification 4 0 1 3 2 5 Exponent (Degree) constant linear quadratic quartic quintic cubic 1 4 3 2 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial 0 1 2 3 4 5 Degree constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic Determine the degree: x2 – 5 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Cubic Quadratic Linear Constant 0 1 2 3 4 5 Degree constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic Classify by the number of terms. x2 – 5 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Four terms Trinomial Binomial Monomial 0 1 2 3 4 5 Degree constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic Classify 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 Degree constant linear quartic quintic quadratic cubic Match the polynomial with the name x3-5x+1 5 x5 2 4 1 3 Terms monomial Polynomial of 4 terms binomial trinomial Constant Monomial ?
