Essential QuestionWhat information can you gather after multiplying polynomials?
Warm-up
Multiplying Monomials
What are monomials?Polynomial with only one term
Multiplying Monomials- Group factors with like bases together. Then multiply.
Example Type 1: Multiplying Monomials
MultiplyA. B.
Example Type 1: Multiplying Monomials
MultiplyC.
Example Type 2: Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial
Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial-Use the Distributive Property!
Example Type 2: Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial
A. 5(2x + x + 4) B. 2x y(3x – y) C. 4a(a b + 2b )2
Example 3:Multiplying Binomials
• -There are a couple different methods you decide what is best for you.
• You can use the distributive property twice.• You can foil.• You can use the box method.
Multiplying Binomials
• Method 1: Apply the Distributive Property twice (can box)
(x+3)(x+2)
Multiplying BinomialsMethod 2: FOIL METHOD (x+3)(x+2)
First Outer Inner Last Combine like terms/Simplify
Example Type 3: Multiplying Binomials
• Multiply using any methodA. B. C.
Example 4: Multiplying Polynomials
• Again there are multiple ways to solve. Find the way that you like and use it!!
• Distributive Property• Rectangular Model• Vertical Model
Example 4: Multiplying Polynomials
Method 1: Distributive Property(5x + 3)( + 10x – 6)
Example 4: Multiplying Polynomials
Method 2: Rectangular Model(5x + 3)( + 10x – 6)
Example 4: Multiplying Polynomials
Method 3: Vertical Model(5x + 3)( + 10x – 6)
Example Type 4: Multiplying Polynomials
A. (x + 2)(x² – 5x + 4) B. (3x – 4)(-2x² + 5x – 6)
Example Type 4: Multiplying Polynomials
A. (x + 2)(x² – 5x + 4) B. (3x – 4)(-2x² + 5x – 6)
Example Type 4: Multiplying Polynomials
C. D.
Example Type 5: Word Application
A. The length of a rectangle is 5 inches greater than the width.1. Write an expression for the width of the rectangle.
2. Write an expression for the length of the rectangle. 3. Write a simplified expression for the area of the rectangle. 4. Find the area of the rectangle when the width is 3 inches.
5. Find the area of the rectangle when the length is 9 inches.
Example Type 5: Word Application
B. The length of a rectangle is 4 meters shorter than its width. 1. Write a polynomial that represents the area of the rectangle.
2. Find the area of the rectangle when the width is 6 meters.
