The wall area is the product of the room perimeter and the room height:
   A₁ = (2*(12.5 ft + 10.5 ft))*(8.0 ft) = 368 ft²

The window and door area together is
   A₂ = 2*((4 ft)*(3 ft)) + (7 ft)*(3 ft) = 45 ft²

The area of one roll of wallpaper is
   A₃ = (2.5 ft)*(30 ft) = 75 ft²

Then the number of rolls of wallpaper required will be
   1.1*(A₁ - A₂)/A₃ ≈ 4.74

5 rolls of wallpaper should be purchased.

_____
As a practical matter, not much of the window and door area can be saved. The rolls are 30 inches wide, but the openings are 36 inches wide. Some will likely have to be cut from two strips. The strips will have to be the full length of the wall, and the amount cut likely cannot be used elsewhere. If the window and door area cannot be salvaged, then likely ceiling(5.4) = 6 rolls will be needed (still allowing 10% for matching and waste).

Answer:

1A) Degree: 3

1B)  4 terms

1C) 7x^3-5x^2-4x+10

2A) 3m-5n+1

2B) -2b^3-3b+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial is -4x+7x^3-5x^2+10

Let us rewrite the polynomial in decreasing powers of x.

This gives us the expression;

7x^3-5x^2-4x+10-----> This is called the standard form.

So let us answer the question:

A) The degree is the exponent of the first term when the polynomial is written in standard form.

Degree: 3

B) The terms are separated by + or - signs.

Number of terms: 4

C) Standard form: 7x^3-5x^2-4x+10

2A) The given expression is (7m-2n)+(-3n-4m+1)

We expand using the distributive property to get:

7m-2n-3n-4m+1

We regroup the terms to get:

7m-4m-2n-3n+1

We simplify to obtain:

3m-5n+1

2B) The given expression is  (b^3-2b+4)-(3b^3+b-1)

b^3-2b+4-3b^3-b+1

Regroup the terms to get:

b^3-3b^3-2b-b+4-1

We simplify to get:

-2b^3-3b+3
