To multiply TWO polynomials, you multiply each term in the first, by each term in the second. This can be justified by a repeated application of the distributive law.
Two multiply more than two polynomials, you multiply the first two. Then you multiply the result with the third polynomial. If there are any more, multiply the result with the fourth polynomial, etc.
Actually the polynomials can be multiplied in any order; both the communitative and associate laws apply.

What is the distributive property when multiplying polynomials?
You just multiply the term to the polynomials and you combine lije terms
How do you multiply when you have a x and y in polynomials and you have to multiply them?
x times y is "xy"
Will the product of two polynomials always be a polynomial?
Yes, the product of two polynomials will always be a polynomial. This is because when you multiply two polynomials, you are essentially combining like terms and following the rules of polynomial multiplication, which results in a new polynomial with coefficients that are the products of the corresponding terms in the original polynomials. Therefore, the product of two polynomials will always be a polynomial.
How can you get help with polynomials and other Algebraic problems?
The best way to get help with understanding Algebraic problems on WikiAnswers is to ask a question about a specific type of problem. For example, if you want to know how to multiply polynomials, you could ask "What are the steps needed to multiply polynomials?" There are also some excellent websites that show all the steps to take to solve specific problems. Please see the Related Links below to go to one or more of those websites.
Give examples of some kinds of polynomials?
Binomials and trinomials are two types of polynomials. The first has two terms and the second has three.
