​

If P(a) = 0, then x – a is a factor of P(x).

​

Conversely, if x – a is a factor of P(x), then P(a) = 0.

​ILLUSTRATES POLYNOMIAL EQUATION

​​

What is the difference between an expression and an equation?

• ​ If a polynomial is an algebraic expression involving only nonnegativeinteger powers of one or more variable and containing no variable in the denominator.

• ​An algebraic equation is a mathematical statement stating that two algebraic expressions are equal.

​POLYNOMIAL EQUATION

​Degree of a polynomial equation

degree of the term with the highest degree in the polynomial.

​RECALL

• ​SOLUTION a specific number when replaced to a variable and the result is true then that number is called a solution (or root) of the equation.​

• ​ SOLUTION SET is the set of all the solutions that satisfy the equation. ​ Examples: 1) −4 is a root of the equation x + 4= 0 because when −4 is substituted to x, it makes the equation true. 2). 2 is NOT a root of the equation x + 4=0 2 + 4 = 0 because when 2 is substituted to x, it makes the equation false.

​ c.) (x + 1) (x + 3) (x - 2) = 0.

​

​ 3.) (x + 1) (x + 3) (x - 2) = 0

a.) x +1 = 0

x + 3 = 0

x – 2 = 0

x = −1 x = −3 x = 2

​

b) Therefore, the roots are: { −1, −3, 2}.

​

​Example 2. Find the roots of 2m⁴ + 3m³ – 7m² – 12m – 4 = 0.

​Example 3. Find the roots of k³ + 8k² + 18k +12 = 0.

​b) Therefore, the roots are: { -2, −𝟑 ± √𝟑 }.
