We apply tropical geometry to study the image of a mapdefined by Laurent polynomials with generic coefficients.If this image is a hypersurface then our approach gives aconstruction of its Newton polytope. This is jointwork with Jenia Tevelev and Josephine Yu http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/math.CO/0607368.
