Yes. If you add, subtract or multiply (but not if you divide) any two polynomials, you will get a polynomial.
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.
A sum of polynomials is a polynomial.A product of polynomials is a polynomial.A composition of two polynomials is a polynomial, which is obtained by substituting a variable of the first polynomial by the second polynomial.The derivative of the polynomial anxn + an-1xn-1 + ... + a2x2 + a1x + a0 is the polynomial nanxn-1 + (n-1)an-1xn-2 + ... + 2a2x + a1. If the set of the coefficients does not contain the integers (for example if the coefficients are integers modulo some prime number p), then kak should be interpreted as the sum of ak with itself, k times. For example, over the integers modulo p, the derivative of the polynomial xp+1 is the polynomial 0.If the division by integers is allowed in the set of coefficients, a primitive or antiderivative of the polynomial anxn + an-1xn-1 + ... + a2x2 + a1x + a0 is anxn+1/(n+1) + an-1xn/n + ... + a2x3/3 + a1x2/2 + a0x +c, where c is an arbitrary constant. Thus x2+1 is a polynomial with integer coefficients whose primitives are not polynomials over the integers. If this polynomial is viewed as a polynomial over the integers modulo 3 it has no primitive at all.
Yes, although we generally refer to polynomials with two terms, like this one, as binomials.
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.
Yes. A polynomial multiplying by a polynomial will always have a multi-termed product. Hope this helps!

That property is called CLOSURE.
The sum of two polynomials is always a polynomial. Therefore, it follows that the sum of more than two polynomials is also a polynomial.
No. Even if the answer is zero, zero is still a polynomial.

It is called the property of "closure".
Closure
(b+8)(b+8)
Division of one polynomial by another one.
A zero of the derivative will always appear between two zeroes of the polynomial. However, they do not always alternate. Sometimes two or more zeroes of the derivative will occur between two zeroes of a polynomial. This is often seen with quartic or quintic polynomials (polynomials with the highest exponent of 4th or 5th power).
irreducible polynomial prime...i know its the same as irreducible but on mymathlab you would select prime
