kipriyanovichAlright, future engineers!
**Factoring** breaks down a polynomial into simpler multiplied terms.
Ex: `x^2+5x+6 = (x+2)(x+3)`
Pro-Tip: Always check for a Greatest Common Factor (GCF) first! It simplifies everything.

Alright, future engineers!
**Synthetic Division** is a shortcut to divide a polynomial by a linear factor `(x-k)`.
Ex: `(x^3 - x^2 + x - 1) / (x-1)` use `k=1`.
Pro-Tip: ONLY works if the divisor is `(x-k)`! Not for `x^2+1` or higher powers.

**Factoring** breaks down a polynomial into a product of simpler expressions.
Ex: `x^2 + 5x + 6 = (x+2)(x+3)`

Alright, future engineers!
**Factoring** breaks a polynomial into simpler expressions (factors) that multiply to it. Ex: `x^2+5x+6 = (x+2)(x+3)`. Pro-Tip: Always look for a Greatest Common Factor (GCF) first!
Paul Arnheim-ProjektThank you for your comment!
#Calculus of #polynomials could also be really simple. I hope you'll enjoy lazybones's darling;)
Polynomials:
n-dimensional cuboids.
Epsilon, fuck off!
Matthew ConroyI've been making plots of the sets of roots of some polynomials. They look more interesting than I'd expected! And I've been making sounds from them, too. I have a bunch on this page of my website (I'll probably be adding more). Click on the images to embiggen them, and if you're in a hurry, the last sound on the page is the most catchy. https://www.madandmoonly.com/doctormatt/sound/littlewoodPolynomials/

A now a message from the Society for the Protection of Polynomials.
Hi! We at the Society for the Protection of Polynomials remind you that factoring a polynomial is not a harmless operation. Whenever you factor a polynomial, you are causing untold damage to it.
Don't factor polynomials.
Keep them whole.
