No. A counter-example proves the falsity: Consider the two binomials (x + 2) and (x - 2). Then (x + 2)(x - 2) = x2 - 2x + 2x - 4 = x2 - 4 another binomial.
It means that the question has been written by someone who does not know what the word "polynomial" means, or else that this is a copy-and-paste by someone who knows even less! Only a trinomial can be written as a product of two binomials. No polynomial of any other order can!
A binomial has two terms, while a trinomial has 3 terms. So both terms of the binomial will multiply each term of the trinomial (distribution property). After the multiplication you'll have 6 terms. Look for like terms, if there are, combine them.
The two binomials can be written as (x - a)(x + a), for any constant a. Proof: Expand using FOIL: (x - a)(x + a) = x2 + xa - xa - a2 Group: (x - a)(x + a) = x2 - a2 x2 - a2 is a difference of squares. Thus, the product of (x - a) and (x + a) is a difference of squares.
You can factor a polynomial using one of these steps: 1. Factor out the greatest common monomial factor. 2. Look for a difference of two squares or a perfect square trinomial. 3. Factor polynomials in the form ax^2+bx+c into a product of binomials. 4. Factor a polynomial with 4 terms by grouping.
no, because some examples are: (a-2)(a+2) = a^2-4 (binomial) & (a+b)(c-d) = ac-ad+bc-db (polynomial) but can 2 binomials equal to a monomial?
No. A counter-example proves the falsity: Consider the two binomials (x + 2) and (x - 2). Then (x + 2)(x - 2) = x2 - 2x + 2x - 4 = x2 - 4 another binomial.

You didn't bother to list the binomials to choose from, but the two binomial factors of x2 + 6x - 40 are (x + 10) and (x - 4)
a²-b²
the two consecutive positive integers whose product is 380 19 20
distributive.
distributive
(a-b) (a+b) = a2+b2
X2 + 2X - 35(X - 5)(X + 7)================take your pick of these two binomials
