Polynomial definition

Polynomial definition we do not know the value of the constant, then we usually use the letters a, b, c, d to represent the constant. When we say ‘ay', ‘a' represents a constant unless mentioned otherwise and ‘y' represents a variable. The value of a constant does not change but the value of a variable can change in a problem. Each term in an algebraic expression is separated by a + or - sign. A monomial is an algebraic expression with a single algebraic term. The Numerical Coefficient of a monomial is the numerical part of the monomial. For example, the velocity of an object dropped from a height of s units can be represented as v2 = 2gs where g is acceleration due to gravity. In this algebraic equation, v2 and 2gs are terms.
