Question

If you multiply two binomials together, what type of polynomial will the product be? A. a monomial B. a binomial C. a trinomial D. it is not possible to determine
Please help me I don't really understand this Question.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option: D is the correct answer.

D.   it is not possible to determine

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a binomial is a polynomial with two terms and the polynomial may be of any degree and may contain at most 4 terms i.e. it may be a binomial, trinomial or a polynomial with four terms.

a)

  $(x-2)(x+4)=x^2+2x-8$

We get a trinomial

b)

$(x^2-4)(x^3+1)=x^5+x^2-4x^3-4$

Hence, we get a polynomial with four terms.

c)

$(x-1)(x+1)=x^2-1$

Now we got a binomial.

Hence, the best possible answer is:

                   D. it is not possible to determine    

Answer 2

The answer is D , it is not possible to determine.
