Multiplication of polynomials

Put on your thinking caps because middle school math has never been more interesting in this huge resource full of thought provoking questions. Written as a newsletter, the resource has 10 two-page newsletters with a variety of...

Give the class a prime example of using prime numbers. After reviewing prime factorization of numbers with the video, pupils use their knowledge to determine greatest common factors and least common multiples in the learning exercise....

While explaining how to add polynomial expressions with multiple variables, Sal uses academic vocabulary and a clear thinking process. This video is relatively short and would be appropriate for students working on homework or prepping...

First clarifying that people need to "resist every temptation on earth" when squaring a binomial, Sal walks viewers through a few equations using binomials and applies the skills from the previous videos about working with polynomials....

Some polynomials, when multiplied, result in a special product. Sal uses the distributive property to demonstrate the multiplication process. He then explains why some polynomials cannot be completely simplified.

There's more to derivatives of multiplication than simply the product of the derivatives. A helpful video gives learners the product rule of finding the derivative of the product of two functions. Pupils find the derivatives of functions...

Cut a piece of molding by subtracting polynomials. Pupils watch a video as the presenter works through an example of a word problem involving the subtraction of polynomials. The problem involves finding the remaining length of a piece of...

Some lessons feature videos, some interactive practice problems, and some have notes and activities. This comprehensive look at factoring and solving polynomial equations using the zero product principle has all of this and more. Though...

You'd think that the derivative of a product of two functions would be the product of their derivatives, but that's not the case! Viewers learn the Product Rule for differentiation in the concept video in the first installment of a...

Subtract polynomials? Huh? First off find the additive inverse of the number you are subtracting. Next rewrite the polynomials one on top of the other. Make sure to line up the like terms and then write in placeholders. Now add the terms...
