Polynomial arithmetic is the toolkit for everything quadratic. Students combine like terms across two expressions, distribute a monomial across a polynomial, and multiply two binomials into a trinomial.
How the Algebra 1 EOC tests this benchmark
Operands are limited to three terms each, and every add or subtract item includes at least one expression of degree two or higher, so first-degree-only items do not appear. Subtraction is the highest-value skill: the EOC distractors are built from students who distribute the minus sign to only the first term. Equation editor items ask for the simplified polynomial.
