    A polynomial is a many-termed mathematical expression, with terms separated by plus or minus signs. The coefficients of a polynomial are the coefficients of its terms.

    However, because the word polynomial means “many terms,” we can also use the word polynomial to describe mathematical expressions with more than three terms, such as: \[x^{4}-4 x^{3} y+6 x^{2} y^{2}-4...However, because the word polynomial means “many terms,” we can also use the word polynomial to describe mathematical expressions with more than three terms, such as: x44x3y+6x2y24xy3+y4The coefficients of x44x3y+6x2y24xy3+y4 are 1, 4, 6, 4, and 1.

    Note that if you wrote  x2+5x+6 as  x2+3x+2x+6 and grouped the pairs as  (x2+3x)+(2x+6), then factored,  x(x+3)+2(x+3), and factored out  x+3, the ans...Note that if you wrote  x2+5x+6 as  x2+3x+2x+6 and grouped the pairs as  (x2+3x)+(2x+6), then factored,  x(x+3)+2(x+3), and factored out  x+3, the answer would be  (x+3)(x+2). It means that in trinomials of the form  x2+bx+c (where the coefficient in front of  x2 is 1), if you can identify the correct  r and  s values, you can effectively skip the grouping steps and go right to the factored form.

They are smooth, continuous curves when graphed. They are fairly easy to graph, find roots, and calculate outputs for real-number inputs. Polynomials will continue to be relevant to all of your math and science courses going forward!
