In mathematics, a polynomial is an
expression of finite length
constructed from variables and
constants, using only the operations
of addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and non-negative,
whole-number exponents. Polynomials
appear in a wide variety of areas of
mathematics and science. For
example, they are used to form
polynomial equations, which encode a
wide range of problems, from
elementary word problems to
complicated problems in the sciences;
they are used to define polynomial
functions, which appear in settings
ranging from basic chemistry and
physics to economics and social
science; they are used in calculus and
numerical analysis to approximate
other functions.
For example:
f(x) = 7, g(x) = -3/2, h(x) = 2
are constant polynomials.
The degree of constant
polynomials is not defined.
For example:
p(x) = 4x 3, q(x) =
3y are linear polynomials.
Any linear polynomial is
in the form ax + b,
where a, b are real nos.
and a 0.
It may be a monomial or a binomial. F(x) = 2x 3
is binomial whereas g (x) = 7x is monomial.
Value of f(x) at x = 1
If f(x) is a polynomial
and y is any real no.
then real no. obtained
by replacing x by y in
f(x) is called the value
of f(x) at x = y and is
denoted by f(x).
