Is the sum of two monomials always a monomial? is their product always a monomial?

Sum of two monomials is not necessarily always a monomial.

For example:

Suppose we have two monomials as 2x and 5x.

Adding 2x+5x , we get 7x.

So if two monomials are both like terms then their sum will be a monomial.

Suppose we have two monomials as 3y and 4x

Now these are both monomials but unlike, so we cannot add them together and sum would be 3y + 4x , which is a binomial.

So if we have like terms then the sum is monomial but if we have unlike terms sum is binomial.

Product of monomials:

suppose we have 2x and 5y,

Product : 2x*5y = 10xy ( which is a monomial)

So yes product of two monomials is always a monomial.

x = 25/2304
