How is factoring a polynomial different from multiplying two binomials?
The same way that factoring a number is different from multiplying two factors. In general, it is much easier to multiply two factors together, than to find factors that give a certain product.
How do you tell if a polynomial cannot be factored?
Try all the factoring techniques that you have been taught. If none work then it is prime (cannot be factored), try looking for (1) a greatest common factor (2) special binomials ... difference of squares, difference (or sum) of cubes (3) trinomal factoring techniques (4) other polymonials look for grouping techniques.
Factoring polynomials 9k2-12k plus 4?

What does factoring a polynomial mean?
It means finding numbers (constant terms), or polynomials of the same or smaller order that multiply together to give the original polynomial.
How is factoring related to multiplying?
Well factoring is the inverse of the distribution property, which is a(b+c)=ab+ac. When you factor you are turning big terms into smaller terms and you can go back to the bigger, single term by foiling a.k.a multiplication
