Will the product of two binomials after combining like terms always be trinomial?
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.
What does it mean when it says write each polynomial as the product of two binomials?
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!
How do you multiply trinomials with binomials in algebra?
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.
How do you write two binomials whose product is a difference of squares?
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.
