  2. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x – 2)(x + 2) is a polynomial factorization of x 2 – 4. Factorisation ezzzzzzzzz is not usually considered meaningful within number systems possessing division , such as the real or complex numbers , since any x {\displaystyle x} can be trivially written as ( x y ) × ( 1 / y ...

  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 ...

    [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:

  5. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization_of_polynomials

    A simplified version of the LLL factorization algorithm is as follows: calculate a complex (or p-adic) root α of the polynomial () to high precision, then use the Lenstra–Lenstra–Lovász lattice basis reduction algorithm to find an approximate linear relation between 1, α, α 2, α 3, . . . with integer coefficients, which might be an ...

  6. Trinomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinomial

    For instance, the polynomial x 2 + 3x + 2 is an example of this type of trinomial with n = 1. The solution a 1 = −2 and a 2 = −1 of the above system gives the trinomial factorization: x 2 + 3x + 2 = (x + a 1)(x + a 2) = (x + 2)(x + 1). The same result can be provided by Ruffini's rule, but with a more complex and time-consuming process.

  7. Factor theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_theorem

    In algebra, the factor theorem connects polynomial factors with polynomial roots. Specifically, if f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} is a polynomial, then x − a {\displaystyle x-a} is a factor of f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} if and only if f ( a ) = 0 {\displaystyle f(a)=0} (that is, a {\displaystyle a} is a root of the polynomial).

  8. Coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient

    For example, if y is considered a parameter in the above expression, then the coefficient of x would be −3y, and the constant coefficient (with respect to x) would be 1.5 + y. When one writes a x 2 + b x + c , {\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c,} it is generally assumed that x is the only variable, and that a , b and c are parameters; thus the ...

  9. Polynomial long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_long_division

    Divide the first term of the dividend by the highest term of the divisor (x 3 ÷ x = x 2). Place the result below the bar. x 3 has been divided leaving no remainder, and can therefore be marked as used by crossing it out. The result x 2 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −3x 2. Determine the partial remainder by ...
