Study Notes

  • The notes cover content for Topic 6 - Quiz.

Question 1

  • Part A involves simplifying the expression (3x - 4x - 5x) + (2x² + 3x²).
  • Combining like terms simplifies the expression to -6x + 5x², which can be rewritten as 5x² - 6x.
  • Part B requires writing the simplified expression in standard form, resulting in 5x² - 6x.
  • Part C asks to write the degree of each monomial in the expression.
  • The degree of 5x² (D1) is 2, and the degree of -6x (D2) is 1.
  • Part D is to write the degree of the monomial 8xyz^5 which is 14 (7+2+5).

Question 2

  • The task is to find the sum of the polynomials (-2x² + 3x + 4) and (3x² + 4x + 6).
  • After eliminating parentheses and combining like terms, the sum is x² + 7x + 2.

Question 3

  • The FOIL method is utilized to multiply the binomials (2x + 4) and (4x - 7)
  • Multiplying First terms: 2x * 4x = 8x²
  • Multiplying Outer terms: 2x * -7 = -14x
  • Multiplying Inner terms: 4 * 4x = 16x
  • Multiplying Last terms: 4 * -7 = -28
  • Combining these results gives the expanded form: 8x² + 2x - 28.

Question 4

  • The objective is to factor the polynomial 12x^5y^3 + 8x^4y^2 - 6x^3y using the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).
  • First, find the factors of 12, 8, and 6 which are 223, 222, 2*3.
  • Determine the lowest number of x and y's in the equation, 3 x's, 1 y.
  • The GCF of 12x^5y^3 + 8x^4y^2 - 6x^3y is 2x^3y
  • The resulting terms in the equation are (6x^2y^2 + 4xy - 3)

Question 5

  • Divide polynomials by 5x of 25x^7 - 10x^2 + 30x
  • Dividing each term results in: 5x^6 - 2x + 6
  • Note: x^0 = 1

Question 6

  • Factored form of x^2 - 11x + 18
  • Factors of 18: 1,18; 2,9; 3,6
  • -2 + -9 = -11
  • Factored form: (x - 2)(x - 9)
