The answer is "yes"
The expression 4x is the same as 4x^1. It is in the form ax^n where a = 4 is the coefficient and n = 1 is the exponent.
A polynomial can have exactly one term, which is what the case is here.

Answer:
y = 3x^2 +30x +69
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformations work this way:
g(x) = k·f(x) . . . . vertical stretch by a factor of k
g(x) = f(x -h) +k . . . . translation (right, up) by (h, k)
__
So, the translation down 2 units will make the function be ...
f(x) = x^2 ⇒ f1(x) = f(x) -2 = x^2 -2
The vertical stretch by a factor of 3 will make the function be ...
f1(x) = x^2 -2 ⇒ 3·f1(x) = f2(x) = 3(x^2 -2)
The horizontal translation left 5 units will make the function be ...
f2(x) = 3(x^2 -2) ⇒ f2(x +5) = f3(x) = 3((x +5)^2 -2)
The transformed function equation can be written ...
y = 3((x +5)^2 -2) = 3(x^2 +10x +25 -2)
y = 3x^2 +30x +69
__
The attachment shows the original function and the various transformations. Note that the final function is translated down 6 units from the original. That is because the down translation came <em>before</em> the vertical scaling.

Answer:
(c) 27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many multiple-choice questions, you only need to look at something that will discriminate the correct answer from the wrong one.
The highest-degree product term is the product of the highest-degree terms in the factors:
(3x^5)(9x^6) = 27x^11
This matches choice C only.
_____
In case you're interested in actually performing the rest of the multiplication, the distributive property applies.
(1 +3x^5)(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)
= 1(17x^2 +9x^6 -20) +3x^5(17x^2 +9x^6 -20)
= 17x^2 +9x^6 -20 +51x^7 +27x^11 -60x^5
Writing these terms in order of decreasing exponents gives ...
= 27x^11 +51x^7 +9x^6 -60x^5 +17x^2 -20
The area of a parallelogram can be obtained by multiplying the length of the base by the height. Although no diagram is given, let us assume values of the base and height that would yield one of the choices as answers. Let us say that parallelogram MATH has the following values:
base = 6 m
height = 11 m
Area = base * height = 6 * 11
Area = 66 m^2
Therefore, the answer is B.
