1.What is fractional coefficient? The number in front of a variable is a fraction. Example:1/2x 2.How would polynomials be different with fractional coefficients? There would only be fractions in the answer. 3. What is the distributive properties? You are taking the number outside the parenthesis and multiplying it by each number inside the parenthesis. 4.Why is it important to understand the distributive property when multiplying polynomials? It is important to understand the distributive property when multiplying polynomials because you need to use the distributive to divide the problem up and get the number sentence for your answer. 5. How do I multiply polynomials? 1. If you have 2x(3x²+4x-6) 2.So you would have (2*x*3*x*x)+(2*x*4*x)-(2*x*6) 3.Then your answer would be 6x³+8x²-12x 6. What do I do with the exponets when multipling? You add the exponents when multiplying polynomials. [|Multiplying Polynomials]
