Each of the numbers being multiplied is a factor of the term. Thus, the term Like terms have the same literal coefficient, while unlike terms have different literal coefficients. Thus,
An expression consists of one or more terms. Expressions may be monomials or polynomials, which are described below. Monomials and PolynomialsA monomial is an expression of one term, e.g.
Linear PolynomialsA polynomial of degreeThe degree of an expression that has not more than one variable in each term is the highest power to which that variable is raised in the expression. .......(1) where a and b are real numbers, and
Thus,
Quadratic PolynomialsA polynomial of degree .......(2)
where a and b are real numbers, and
Thus,
Cubic PolynomialsA polynomial of degree .......(3) where a and b are real numbers, and
