Model each polynomial using algebra tiles.


  1. 3 x 11 2. 3 x^2  4 x 2 3. 4 x^2  2


Name the polynomial modeled by the algebra tiles.









Use algebra tiles to simplify each polynomial.


  1. 3  5 x 2 x^2 7. 2 x^2  2 xxx^2 8. 5 x^2 x^2  4 x 3 x 2


9.Write and simplify the polynomial represented by the model.

10.Write and Discuss Explain how you would simplify the polynomial
 2 x^2  3 x 1  4 xwithout using algebra tiles.

Write the polynomial 2x^2 xx^2  5 x 7
in simplest form.

1


Model the polynomial with
algebra tiles.

Rearrange the tiles so that like
terms are next to each other.
Then remove the zero pairs.

Write the polynomial for the
resulting model.

So 2x^2 xx^2  5 x7 in simplest form
is x^2  2 x2.

x^2  2 x  2

2 x^2 x x^2  5 x 7

2 x^2  x^2  2 x 5  7
