A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

-6c + 5 > -1 + 5c
-6c > -1 + 5c - 5
-6c - 5c > -1 - 5
-11c > -6
c > \( \frac{-6}{-11} \)
c > \(\frac{6}{11}\)

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y - 3)(y - 2)
(y x y) + (y x -2) + (-3 x y) + (-3 x -2)
y² - 2y - 3y + 6
y² - 5y + 6

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

5a⁴ + 3a⁴ = 8a⁴
