en CR 26 factoring : reverse of finding the related products special products : finding products of binomials using short methods polynomial : algebraic expression that expression that represents sum of one or more terms containing whole number exponents on the variables monomial : polynomial with one term binomial : polynomial with two terms trinomial : polynomial with three terms degree of a monomial : total number of times its variables occur as factors degree of a polynomial : greatest of the degrees of its term like terms : two or more terms that contain the same variable(s) and exponents unlike terms : terms that differ by at least one variable combining like terms : polynomial containing two or more like terms can be simplified by adding these terms product rule for exponents : to multiply powers having the same base, keep the base and add the exponents power rule for exponents : to find the power of a power of a base, keep the base and multiply the exponents power of a product rule : to find the power of a product, find the power of each factor then multiply the resulting powers foil method : another method which has first term, outer term, inner term, and last term division of polynomials : can be checked in the same way as division of real numbers square of a binomial : square of the first term plus (or minus) twice the product of the two terms plus the square of the last term greatest common factor : factor having the greatest numerical factor and with variable having the least degree factoring completely : means to factor until factoring is no longer possible perfect square trinomials : come in two forms , one in which middle term is positive and other in which middle term is negative chunking : refers to method of collecting several pieces of information and grouping them together as a single piece of information zero : either positive or negative negative : a real number that is less than zero positive :a real number that is greater thank zero sign : originates from the property of every non-zero real number to be positive or negative real number : is said to be positive if it is greater than zero, and negative if it is less than zero mathematics : is the study of topics such as quantity (numbers), structure, space, and change rational : derives its meaning from the word ratio rational expression : is to think of it as a fraction whose numerator and denominators are polynomials cancellation : a method of dividing a factor in the numerator by the same factor in the denominator literal coefficient : variables or letter numerical coefficient : numbers multinomial : a polynomials with two or more terms addition : the process of uniting two or more numbers into one sum subtraction : the operation of finding the difference between two numbers or quantity multiplication : any generalization of this operation applicable to numbers other than integers, as fractions or irrational numbers division : the operation inverse to multiplication; the finding of a quantity, the quotient, that when multiplied by a given quantity, the divisor, gives another given quantity, the dividend; the process of ascertaining how many times one number or quantity is contained in another numerator : the term of a fraction, usually above the line, that indicates the number of equal parts that are to be added together; the dividend placed over a divisor denominator : that term of a fraction, usually written under the line, that indicates the number of equal parts into which the unit is divided; divisor multinomial : 8a+7b+6c+5d
