Answer:
1. Fill in the box with 1
2. Fill in the box with -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Expression:
![(-2x^3 + [\ ]x)(x^{[\ ]}+1.5) = A](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-2x%5E3%20%2B%20%5B%5C%20%5Dx%29%28x%5E%7B%5B%5C%20%5D%7D%2B1.5%29%20%3D%20A)
Solving (1): Fill in the box to make it a polynomial.
To make it a polynomial, we simply fill in the box with a positive integer (say 1)
Fill in the box with 1
![(-2x^3 + [1]x)(x^{[1]}+1.5) = A](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-2x%5E3%20%2B%20%5B1%5Dx%29%28x%5E%7B%5B1%5D%7D%2B1.5%29%20%3D%20A)

Reorder
The above expression is a polynomial.
This will work for any positive integer filled in the box
Solving (2): Fill in the box to make it not a polynomial.
The powers of a polynomial are greater than or equal to 0.
So, when the boxes are filled with a negative integer (say -2), the expression will cease to be a polynomial
Fill in the box with -2
![(-2x^3 + [-2]x)(x^{[-2]}+1.5) = A](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-2x%5E3%20%2B%20%5B-2%5Dx%29%28x%5E%7B%5B-2%5D%7D%2B1.5%29%20%3D%20A)

Notice that the least power of x is -1.
Hence, this is not a polynomial.
Answer:
How much is each sandwich, fry, and malt? I can out the answer in the comments, I just need more info.
Answer:
3.4 yards cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume is length x width x height
Length 2 4/5, Width 2, Height 3/5 so 2 4/5 x 2 x 3/5
It looks like they want the answer in decimal form, so you can convert the fractions into decimals.
For the length 2 4/5, you divide the 4 by 5 to get a decimal of .8 so now it's 2.8
For the height of 3/5, you divide the 3/5 & get .6
Now it's 2.8 x 2 x .6 = 3.36 yards cubed which could get rounded up to 3.4 yards cubed

Answer:
12πx⁴, 15x⁷, 16x⁹
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cylinder: πr²h
Volume of a rectangular prism: whl
Plugging in variables for the volume of a cylinder, we get: 3x²·(2x)²·π
3x²·(2x)² = 3·2·2·x·x·x·x
= 12·x⁴
=12x⁴
Now, we just multiply that by π.
12x⁴·π = 12x⁴π
A monomial is a 1-term polynomial, so 12x⁴π is a monomial.
Plugging in variables for the volume of a rectangular prism, we get: 5x³·3x²·x²
5x³·3x² = 5·3·x·x·x·x·x
= 15·x⁵
= 15x⁵
Now, we just multiply that by x².
15x⁵·x²
= 15·x·x·x·x·x·x·x
= 15·x⁷
=15x⁷
A monomial is a 1-term polynomial, so 15x⁷ is a monomial.
Same steps for the last shape, another rectangular prism:
2x²·2x³·4x⁴
2x²·2x³
= 2·2·x·x·x·x·x
= 4·x⁵
= 4x⁵
Now, we just multiply that by 4x⁴.
4x⁵·4x⁴
= 4·4·x·x·x·x·x·x·x·x·x·
= 16·x⁹
= 16x⁹
A monomial is a 1-term polynomial, so 16x⁹ is a monomial.
