Some word problems you can try and solve.

If one ream of bond paper costs (𝟑𝒙 − 𝟒) pesos, how many reams can you buy for
(𝟔𝒙𝟒 − 𝟏𝟕𝒙𝟑 + 𝟐𝟒𝒙𝟐 − 𝟑𝟒𝒙 + 𝟐𝟒) pesos?

How many reams can you buy for (6𝑥 4 − 17𝑥 3 + 24𝑥 2 − 34𝑥 + 24) pesos?
1. Identify
1 ream cost = (3𝑥 − 4) pesos
2. Plan “How many reams can you buy” implies division. Use Synthetic Division.

Therefore, there are (2𝑥 3 − 3𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 6) reams of bond papers.
(2𝑥 3 − 3𝑥 2 + 4𝑥 − 6) ∗ (3𝑥 − 4) = (6𝑥 4 − 17𝑥 3 + 24𝑥 2 − 34𝑥 + 24)
4. Verify
(6𝑥 4 − 17𝑥 3 + 24𝑥 2 − 34𝑥 + 24) ≚ (6𝑥 4 − 17𝑥 3 + 24𝑥 2 − 34𝑥 + 24)

Here are Steps in solving word problem involving polynomial equation.

1. Identify your unknowns.


2. Write your equation.
3. Operate on the numbers.
4. Convert the equation into the standard form. Remember to change signs.
5. Factor the equation. By factoring, you reduce the quadratic equation into two equivalent
linear equations.

Example of the word problem

Find two consecutive odd integers whose product is 195.

Identify the unknowns:

standard form. 𝑥 2 + 2𝑥 − 195 = 0
Factor the equation.
(𝑥 + 15)(𝑥 − 13) = 0
Solve for x.
𝑥 + 15 = 0, 𝑥 = −15
5. Factor the
𝑥 − 13 = 0, 𝑥 = 13
equation.
The two consecutive integers are:
𝑥 = 13 and 𝑥 + 2 = 13 + 2 = 15 , 13 and 15
𝑥 = −15 and 𝑥 + 2 = −15 + 2 = −13 , -13 and -15
𝑥(𝑥 + 2) = 195 𝑥(𝑥 + 2) = 195
13(13 + 2) = 195 −15(−15 + 2) = 195
6. Check
13(15) = 195 −15(−13) = 195
195 ≚ 195 195 ≚ 195

1. If a car covers (15𝑥 2 + 17𝑥 − 2) kilometers in (3𝑥 + 2) hours, what is the average speed in
km/hr?
2. The volume of a rectangular solid is (𝑥 3 + 𝑥 2 − 16𝑥 + 16) cubic cm, and its height is (𝑥 + 1)
