Answer
$x^{2}-49$
Work Step by Step
The standard form of a polynomial is
$a_{n}x^{n}+a_{n}x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_{1}x+a_{0}$
(written in order, highest degree first. If a term is missing, it means that the coefficient is 0)

Recognize a difference of squares $(A-B)(A+B)=A^{2}-B^{2}$.
$(x-7)(x+7)=x^{2}-7^{2}$
= $x^{2}-49$
(Or, apply the FOIL method)
