What to Focus On
- Terms, variables, coefficients, and constants must be identified correctly.
- A polynomial has only one variable in this chapter.
- Degree means the highest power of the variable.
- A linear polynomial is not the same as a linear equation.
- An equation appears only after equating the polynomial to a constant.
- The solution of Example 6 is 27 and 37.
- Substitute the given value of the variable carefully.
- 2x + 3 gives output 11 when x = 4.
- 2x + 3 gives output -9 when x = -6.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Any algebraic expression with letters is a polynomial, even if it has more than one variable.
A linear polynomial is the same as a linear equation.
The constant 8 is not a polynomial because it has no variable.
