Question 129273: 1. Is it possible to generalize a condition for creating any two binomials whose sum is a monomial, and two binomials whose sum is a trinomial?
2. Can you think of a condition under which the product of any two binomials is a binomial? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! -----------
Add general binomials to get:
(ax+b) + (cx+d) = (a+c)x + (b+d)
------------------------------------
1. Is it possible to generalize a condition for creating any two binomials whose sum is a monomial: b and d are both zero
-----------------------------
and two binomials whose sum is a trinomial?: no
---------------
Multiply general binomials to get:
(ax+b)(cx+d) = acx^2 + (ad+bc)x + bd
------------------------------
2. Can you think of a condition under which the product of any two binomials is a binomial?
ad+bc = zero
