1-5: Multiplying Monomials Remember! When multiplying powers with the same base, keep the
base and add the exponents. x 2 · x 3 = x2+3 = x5
You will multiply the coefficients by each other just like you always have done.
(5)(4) = 20
So, when you put the two items together, you have two monomials:
(5x2)(4x3) = 20x5
Example 1: (–3x 3y 2)(4xy 5) = (–3 · 4)(x 3· x)(y 2· y 5) = (-12)(x 3 + 1)(y 2 + 5)= -12x 4y 7
Example 2:
Now you try: a. b. c.
Multiplying monomials and polynomials
Remember the distributive property when you are multiplying larger polynomials. The rules of the exponents are still true, but you have several terms that you now how to distribute.
Warm-up: Answer the following questions.1. What is the degree of the monomial 5x y 4z ? A. 6 B. 1 C. 4 D. 5
2. For f(x) = 2x 2 + 4x – 6 and g(x) = 2x 2 + 2x - 8, find f(x) – g(x). A. – 4x 2 – 2x + 2 B. 2x + 2 C. 4x 2 + 6x + 2 D. 2x – 14
3. Which polynomial is written in standard form? A. 7 + 2x 4 – x 6 B. 3x 3 – x 5 C. x 4 D. x 2 + 3 – 2x
4. What is the degree of the polynomial function h(x) = 7x 3 – x 6 + x A. 10 B. 3 C. – 1 D. 6
5. Short Response Evaluate for x = –2
P(x) and R(x) are polynomials. P(x) is a trinomial. Give examples of P(x) and R(x) that meet the following conditions.
6. P(x) – R(x) is a binomial.
7. P(x) – R(x) is a polynomial with 4 terms.
8. P(x) is a quartic.

You also can think of it as the double distributive– First, I have to multiply x by everything in the second parenthesis. Then I have to come through again and multiply 3 by everything in the second parenthesis.
(x + 3)(x + 2) = x(x + 2) + 3(x + 2)
= x(x) + x(2) + 3(x) + 3(2)
= x 2 + 2x + 3x + 6
= x 2 + 5x + 6
Special products of binomials You also need to be aware of 2 special
types:1) (a – b)(a + b)=a2 – b2
2) (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
(a + b)2= a2 + 2ab + b2
They multiply just like any other binomials, but later you will be factoring, and it will help you to remember these.
Example 1:(a – b)(a + b) = a(a) + a(b) – b(a) – b(b) = a 2 + ab – ab - b 2
= a 2 – b 2
Example 2: (a + b)2 = (a + b)(a + b) = a 2 + a(b) + b(a) – b(b)
= a 2 + ab + ab - b 2
= a 2 + 2ab + b 2
Huge Note: Make sure that when you have a binomial squared, that you first write outthe 2 binomials side by side.
Example 1:(x + 4)2 = (x + 4)(x + 4) = x2 + 4x + 4x + 16 = x2 + 8x + 16
Example 2:(3x + 2y)2 = (3x + 2y)(3x + 2y) = (3x)(3x) + (3x)(2y) + (3x)(2y) + (2y)(2y) = 9x2 + 6xy + 6xy + 4y2
= 9x2 + 12xy + 4y2
You try: a. (x – 5)2 b. (6x -5)2
