Even with the correct answer, responses without enough work will receive no credit.
Finally, when possible, remember that it is best to write polynomials arranging each monomial term with variables in alphabetical order. And the monomials within a polynomials should be listed by descending degree.

Stephen King is a famously prolific writer, having published over 60 novels and 200 short stories. If King wrote
Multiply:
Every degree-2 polynomial in one variable can be expressed as
Create an example where multiplying two, degree 2 polynomials does not yield another degree 2 polynomial.
Is the set of polynomials in one variable closed under multiplication? Explain your reasoning.
HINT: Think about how we multiply polynomials by using complicated versions (technically, "corollaries") of the distributive property. If both the things we start with are polynomials, is it possible that the product (the answer) is not another polynomial of some sort?
Note: Make sure you type enough here to make your thinking clear. Grading for this question will go by the quality of the explanation more than the accuracy of the answer.
