Distributive Property
Distributive
to multiplya polynomial by a monomial,use the distributive property and then combine like terms.
It can, so the question does not make sense.
Factoring a polynomial with 5 or more terms is very hard and in general impossible using only algebraic numbers. The best strategy here is to guess some 'obvious' solutions and reduce to a fourth or lower order polynomial.

If you want to multiply the monomial by the polynomial, yes. In that case, you have to multiply the monomial by every term of the polynomial. For example: a (b + c + d) = ab + ac + ad More generally, when you multiply together two polynomials, you have to multiply each term in one polynomial by each term of the other polynomial; for example: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd All this can be derived from the distributive property (just apply the distributive property repeatedly).
You can't know if a general polynomial is in factored form.

It is still called a polynomial.
a simplified polynomial is a algebraic equation/expression with variables and constants that can can be written as a sum of terms. Simplified form is the opposite of factored form P(x) = ( 2x - 3)( x+4 ) Is a factored form - product of 2 factors. Simplify P(x) by using the distributive property: P(x) = 2x2 +8x - 3x -12 P(x) = 2x2 + 5x - 12 simplified : a sum of terms!

If a number cannot be factored it is a prime number.

The distributive property is a characteristic that two mathematical operators may have. Numbers do not have a distributive property.
