Today, I learned about polynomials. Polynomials are expressions that consist of variables and coefficients, combined using addition, subtraction, and multiplication operations. They can have one or more terms, which are mathematical expressions separated by addition or subtraction symbols.
I worked on problems involving polynomials by first identifying the terms of the polynomial and determining their degrees. The degree of a term is the exponent of the variable with the highest power. I then combined like terms by adding or subtracting them to simplify the expression. I also multiplied polynomials together by using the distributive property and combining like terms.
Additionally, I learned about special types of polynomials, such as linear (degree 1), quadratic (degree 2), and cubic (degree 3) polynomials. I practiced solving polynomial equations by setting them equal to zero and finding the values of the variables that satisfy the equation.
Overall, today I gained a better understanding of polynomials and how to work with them to solve mathematical problems.
