Monomials, Binomials, and Polynomials

Monomials, Binomials, and Polynomials

1. A monomial is the product of non-negative integer powers of variables. Consequently, a monomial has NO variable in its denominator. It has one term. (mono implies one)
   
   (notice: no negative exponents, no fractional exponents)
2. A binomial is the sum of two monomials. It has two unlike terms.
   (bi implies two)
   
3. A trinomial is the sum of three monomials. It has three unlike terms. (tri implies three)
   
4. A polynomial is the sum of one or more terms. (poly implies many)
   

Polynomials are in simplest form when they contain no like terms.

Polynomials are generally written in descending order.
