  1. Polynomials, Expressions, and Formulas Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Variable

  2. Overview We begin this module with a study of numbers and the basic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The algebraic properties of these operations are introduced along with the conventions for the order in which the operations are performed in mathematical expressions. Lessons are included on numerical and variable expressions, as well as on writing, evaluating, and simplifying these expressions. These concepts are extended to polynomials, with lessons on simplifying, adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, and factoring polynomials. There are also lessons on more general formulas, including evaluating and rewriting formulas. On the following Topics slide there is a link to a table of contents for each topic. Clicking on a link on a Contents slide will take you to the first lesson slide for that topic. In many cases, there will be more than one slide on that topic. Work through as many as you need to master the topic, and then go on to the next topic. Clicking on the heading for a slide will take you back to the Contents slide for that topic; clicking on Return to Topics List on the Contents slide will take you back to the main Topics page.
