2. Let D be an integral domain and let D[X] denote the ring of polynomials in the indeterminate X and coefficients coming from D. For a nonzero polynomial f(x) € D[X], let deg f(X) denote the degree of the the polynomial f(x). a. Prove that the constant term of the product f(X)g(X) is the product of the constant terms of f(X) and g(X). b. Prove that the leading coefficient of the product f(X)g(X) is the product of the leading coefficients of f(X) and g(X). c. Prove that deg f(X)(g(X) = deg f(X) + deg g(X).
