What to Focus On

  • Literal numbers are letters used to represent numbers.
  • Variable: a literal number which can have different values.
  • Constant: a literal number which has a fixed value.

  • An algebraic expression combines numbers, variables, and operations.
  • Terms are parts of an expression separated by + or - signs.
  • A term may contain a numerical coefficient and a variable part.

  • A polynomial is a special kind of algebraic expression.
  • Three conditions must be satisfied for an expression to be a polynomial.
  • The general form in one variable has terms up to x^n.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Any expression with letters is a polynomial.

The coefficient of x is always the number written with x, even in terms like (1/3)xy.

The degree of a term is the number of letters in it.
