  2. Algebraic expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_expression

    [1] [2] [3] [better source needed]. For example, ⁠ 3 x 22 x y + c {\displaystyle 3x^{2}-2xy+c} ⁠ is an algebraic expression. Since taking the square root is the same as raising to the power ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ , the following is also an algebraic expression:

  3. Polynomial expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion

    In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by the equivalent sum of products, continuing until the expression becomes a ...

  4. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    The names for the degrees may be applied to the polynomial or to its terms. For example, the term 2x in x 2 + 2x + 1 is a linear term in a quadratic polynomial. The polynomial 0, which may be considered to have no terms at all, is called the zero polynomial. Unlike other constant polynomials, its degree is not zero.

  5. Solving quadratic equations with continued fractions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solving_quadratic...

    By the fundamental theorem of algebra, if the monic polynomial equation x 2 + bx + c = 0 has complex coefficients, it must have two (not necessarily distinct) complex roots. Unfortunately, the discriminant b 2 − 4c is not as useful in this situation, because it may be a complex number. Still, a modified version of the general theorem can be ...

  6. Polynomial decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_decomposition

    the roots of this irreducible polynomial can be calculated as [5] 1 ± 2 1 / 6 , 1 ± − 1 ± 3 i 2 1 / 3 . {\displaystyle 1\pm 2^{1/6},1\pm {\frac {\sqrt {-1\pm {\sqrt {3}}i}}{2^{1/3}}}.} Even in the case of quartic polynomials , where there is an explicit formula for the roots, solving using the decomposition often gives a simpler form.

  7. Like terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Like_terms

    In mathematics, like terms are summands in a sum that differ only by a numerical factor. [1] Like terms can be regrouped by adding their coefficients. Typically, in a polynomial expression, like terms are those that contain the same variables to the same powers, possibly with different coefficients.

    E.g.: x**2 + 3*x + 5 will be represented as [1, 3, 5] """ out = list (dividend) # Copy the dividend normalizer = divisor [0] for i in range (len (dividend)-len (divisor) + 1): # For general polynomial division (when polynomials are non-monic), # we need to normalize by dividing the coefficient with the divisor's first coefficient out [i ...
