First, distribute the terms.
1(2x^3) = 2x^3
-1(x^2+11) = -x^2-11
Standard form:
2x^3 - x^2 - 11
Since there is a 3, the degree of polynomial is cubic.

You find the area by multiplying all
The length of ST is 10 units, the length of S't" is 2 units.
This means the dilated figure was decreased by a factor of 5.
Because it is smaller it would be a scale factor of 1/5 ( 0.2 as a decimal).
In order to make a table, we sample some x values (whichever we want), and we compute the expression for those value. Each x value will yield a unique y value.
If you need this table to graph the function, you'll only need two points, since this is a line, and having two points you just need to connect them.
Here are some samples, feel free to make more if you need to:





So, we have the following table
