An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate x is x2 − 4x + 7. An example with three indeterminates is x3 + 2xyz2 − yz + 1. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Polynomials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Polynomials</a> appear in many areas of mathematics and science.

Likely Jan LukasIncidentally I'm totally new at trying to figure this sort of thing out but WHY OH WHY are all the websites with this data so fixated on the gorram length of the day???!? It is too hot to math right now! 😡<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/subtraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#subtraction</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/time" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#time</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/TimeAndDate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeAndDate</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/nighttime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nighttime</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/calculations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#calculations</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yegwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#yegwx</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/abwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#abwx</a>

PC<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/@davidradcliffe" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@davidradcliffe</a> Thanks. At first I was amused but now glad you made me think.I hate <a href="https://mas.to/tags/PENDMAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PENDMAS</a> because it is misleading.There are three <a href="https://mas.to/tags/arithmetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arithmetic</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/operations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#operations</a>: <a href="https://mas.to/tags/additions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#additions</a>, <a href="https://mas.to/tags/multiplications" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#multiplications</a> and <a href="https://mas.to/tags/powers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#powers</a>. They are <a href="https://mas.to/tags/geometric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geometric</a> expansions similar to a <a href="https://mas.to/tags/line" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#line</a> to a <a href="https://mas.to/tags/square" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#square</a> to a <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cube</a>. The other three: <a href="https://mas.to/tags/subtraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#subtraction</a>, <a href="https://mas.to/tags/division" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#division</a>, and <a href="https://mas.to/tags/roots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#roots</a> are no different than the above except in <a href="https://mas.to/tags/direction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#direction</a>. They are geometric <a href="https://mas.to/tags/reductions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reductions</a>.To truly understand one you must understand the other.
