In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by the equivalent sum of products, continuing until the expression becomes a ...
0.5 │ 4 −6 0 3 −5 │ 2 −2 −1 1 └─────────────────────── 2 −2 −1 1 −4 The third row is the sum of the first two rows, divided by 2. Each entry in the second row is the product of 1 with the third-row entry to the left.
In mathematics, like terms are summands in a sum that differ only by a numerical factor. [1] Like terms can be regrouped by adding their coefficients. Typically, in a polynomial expression, like terms are those that contain the same variables to the same powers, possibly with different coefficients.
The first algorithm for polynomial decomposition was published in 1985, [6] though it had been discovered in 1976, [7] and implemented in the Macsyma/Maxima computer algebra system. [8] That algorithm takes exponential time in worst case, but works independently of the characteristic of the underlying field.
If x is a simple root of the polynomial , then Laguerre's method converges cubically whenever the initial guess, , is close enough to the root . On the other hand, when x 1 {\displaystyle \ x_{1}\ } is a multiple root convergence is merely linear, with the penalty of calculating values for the polynomial and its first and second derivatives at ...
Applied to the monic polynomial + = with all coefficients a k considered as free parameters, this means that every symmetric polynomial expression S(x 1,...,x n) in its roots can be expressed instead as a polynomial expression P(a 1,...,a n) in terms of its coefficients only, in other words without requiring knowledge of the roots.
In either case the full quartic can then be divided by the factor (x − 1) or (x + 1) respectively yielding a new cubic polynomial, which can be solved to find the quartic's other roots. If a 1 = a 0 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{1}=a_{0}k\ ,} a 2 = 0 {\displaystyle \ a_{2}=0\ } and a 4 = a 3 k , {\displaystyle \ a_{4}=a_{3}k\ ,} then x = − k ...
