Basically you are looking at the powers of the variables instead of the variables themselves.

Although it is not good and is discrimination, us humans sometimes see power or money instead of the actual person when we look at somebody. We see the outside... but not the real person.

A linear expression is just a polynomial without any exponents.

xy+74

This is the axis of symmetry for this specific parabola.

Polynomial with 3 terms like...

3+9y-54

8+5^4-y

# data[].attributes.body
4x+7^2-4

This is a polynomial because it fits the criteria:

A polynomial can have constants, variables and exponents,
but never division by a variable or a negative exponent

To be symmetric is to be the same on both sides, whether split down the middle, across the middle, or even diagonally.

In biology, there are several plants and animals who are symmetrical. Examples are: sea anemones, sea urchins, jellyfish, sand dollars, apples, some flowers, and... butterflies!

Yet another Latin prefix: tri. Tri means three. Some words with tri are:

triangle, triathlon, triceratops, tricycle, trilogy, and many more.

We order things all the time: from least to greatest, greatest to least, etc. This is an example of how websites use low to high/high to low to sort their products.

The standard form of a polynomial is like ordering from high to low. Except instead of Emma books and movies, you are ordering monomial terms (by degrees)

Constant means to stay the same, to be steady and reliable. You can think of a constant in mathematics as reliable because it is just a nice numbers. No mean variables or exponents. These are those things we added/subtracted in first grades, using beans to represent equations!

This is an awesome example of a degree of a polynomial.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The Degree (for a polynomial with one variable, like x) is:

Degrees is a general measuring word that can measure several things, depending on the usage:

temperature, coordinates in geography, academic ranks, difference between notes in music, burns, severity of crimes, degrees of Freemasonry (a fraternal organization), and of course the largest degree of the monomial terms of a polynomial.

These are all related in one important way: they rank something by size or importance.

Once again, this is a Latin prefix! Poly means much or many. Some words with poly are:

There are many types of "expressions" in both math and the real world.

An expression could refer to a saying. Have you ever heard anyone say "Oh, it's an expression."? That is basically saying not to take it too literally, it is just a saying. For example,"it's raining cats and dogs". This is somewhat like a math expression. A math expression is an equation - without the equal sign. For example, 8k + 4 or 3 / 33. There are certain rules for different expressions depending on what it is composed of. This is like a (saying) expression in that it is different for different situations.

Expression can also refer to facial expression.

Vertexes are also part of geometry: a vertex is the corner of a 3-D shape, or a common point of two segments.

This word also has a Latin prefix - mono. Mono means one. Some examples of words with mono in them are:

monophobia, monotone, monosyllabic, monochrome, monopoly, and many more.

# data[].attributes.body
Latin prefixes are in many, many words. They are found all over the English language, including math talk! Bi means 2 and is found in many words:

bicycle, biped, bilingual, biennial, bifocal, and many more

a monomial or difference of monomials (poly=much;many)

a) a real number or

b) a variable or

c) the product of real number & at least one variable with whole number exponents

the terms are ordered so the degrees of monomial terms are largest on the right and smaller on the left

# data[].attributes.body
a term with no variable factor and a degree of zero

# data[].attributes.body
sum or difference of 2 (bi=two) monomials

# data[].attributes.body
the largest degree of the monomial terms of a polynomial
