[Chorus]
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
[Verse 1]
So let me tell you what I’ve learned (Learned)
A polynomial with only one term is a monomial (Term, uh)
And there are several degrees
A cubic’s to the power of 3, a quadratic power of 2 (Three)
A linear power is 1, constant power is none
You should be proud of your son, and your daughter too (Woo! Uh-huh)
‘Causе you know a binomial has not one term but two
And a trinomial has a few (Fеw)
It’s hard work going to school day in and day out (School)
I hear tuck in your shirt, but it stays out
I know the rules, but I can’t conform
But I do know how to write a polynomial in standard form (Yeah)
Write the terms in descending order (Yeah)
The largest exponent to the smallest exponent (Uh-huh, woo!)
The next test is an easy opponent
[Chorus]
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
[Verse 2]
I was taught how to add back in grade school
I started off with one’s and two’s (One’s and two’s)
That was easy for me, but now it’s quantities that I’m adding up (Adding up)
(3x² + 2x – 1) + (2x³ + x) (One)
What’s next? You got the sum (Uh)
2x³ + 3x² + 3x – 1, easy, huh? (- 1, uh-huh)
Just distribute the sign, combine like terms (Sign, terms)
With subtraction
The only difference is you find the difference (Woo!)
I pay attention, that’s why I know so much (Much!)
When the school bell rings, my mind opens up (My mind opens up)
Like a positive quadratic, I love mathematics (Quadratic, math)
I missed a few homeworks and that’s a bad habit
I’m gonna make them up, ‘cause I wanna pass (Pass)
I gotta get an A in this class
[Chorus]
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
P-O-L-Y-N-O-M-I-A-L-S
Get an A or else
Mama said it, so I know I gotta get it
Or I’mma have to go to intersession in a minute
