One commonly used algebraic expression is called a polynomial. A polynomial in one variable, x, is defined as a single term or a sum of terms of the formwhere a is a real number and the exponent, n, is a nonnegative integer. For each term, a is called the coefficient, and n is called the degree of the term.

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of all of its terms. Thus, when written in descending order, the leading term determines the degree of the polynomial.

Polynomials may have more than one variable. In such a case, the degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables contained in the term.The following polynomial has a degree of 11 because thehighest degree of its terms is 11.

Recall that the distributive property is used to add or subtract like terms. For example,
We can shorten the distributive process by adding coefficients of like terms.
