| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Base | The number that is used as a factor. Example: In 3², 3 is the base. |
| Binomial | A polynomial with two terms. Example: 2x²+1. |
| Coefficient | The number in front of the variable part of the monomial. Example: In 3X, 3 is the coefficient. |
| Constant | Numbers with no variable. Example: 3, 20 or 1/2 |
| Degree of a Polynomial | The largest exponent. Example: 2x⁴+3x²+2 degree= 4 |
| Exponent | The superscripted number that tells how many times a base is used as a factor. Example: 2*2*2*2=2⁴ |
| Like Terms | Terms that have the same variable, raised to the same exponent. Example. 2m⁴ and 3m⁴ are like terms. |
| Monomial | 1 term example: 2x |
| Order of Operations | PEMDAS Parentheses (), Exponents 2⁴, Multiplication * or Division 1/2, Addition+ or Subtraction - |
