5. Find the product of p(x) and q(x) if p(x) = 2x+7 and q(x) = 4x-9 a. Is p(x) a polynomial? If not, give an explanation.
b. Is q(x) a polynomiala If not, give an explanation.
c. Is the product a polynomials If not, give an explanation,
d. If the product is a polynomial, identify type and degree.

p(x), q(x), and their product are all polynomials.

p(x) · q(x) = 6x² + 10x - 63

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all P(x) and q(x) are polynomials because polynomials refer to any sum, difference, or product of a collection of algebraic terms. The word polynomials is general. P(x) and q(x) are polynomials but more specifically they are binomials since they only have two terms. Their product is a polynomial as well, but more specifically its a trinomial because it has three terms.

process of multiplying

Using the distributive property (or foil method) when multiplying p(x) and q(x) you would first get the expression 6x² - 18x + 28x - 63. From here you would combine "like terms". This would give you your final answer of

6x² + 10x - 63. Sorry, I couldn't help you with the D question but I hope this helps ;)
