Multiplication of a monomial with a monomial will result in:
A. a monomial
B. a binomial
C. a trinomial
D. Cannot be determined
The multiplication of a monomial with a monomial will always result in a monomial. Here is my reasoning:
The definition of a binomial (in my own words) is an algebraic expression consisting of more than one terms. Now, a term is a product of multiplication of numbers and variables. Because of this, no matter what monomials you take, a binomial will always have a plus or minus sign between two terms. So, if you multiply two monomials, no matter what, it will be impossible to get a plus or minus sign. Let me show you some examples:
(4a) * (2a) = 8a
(3z) * (3w) = 3z3w
(2x^3) * (4z^2) = 2x^3 * 4z^2
And these are all monomials. A monomial cannot have a plus/minus sign, or else it would be a binomial, and so if you multiply two monomials, it will result in:
a) a monomial
