Question

When multiplying a quadratic monomial by a cubic monomial what type of polynomial will be the result?

Answer 1

A quadratic monomial has degree 2, such as x².
A cubic monomial has degree 3, such as x³.

When multiplied together, the degree becomes 5, because (x²)(x³) = x⁵.
The result will be a 5-degree polynomial.

Answer: A 5-degree polynomial.
