Answer in Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
His reasoning is wrong. We can evaluate the validity of his reasoning by looking at the basics of what a polynomial is.
In the real sense of it, what makes a polynomial a polynomial is the power to which the variable is raised and not the integer attached to the variable.
In this case, we do not even have an integer attached.
What makes a polynomial a polynomial is that the variable is raised to an exponent or power which is a positive whole number ( integer)
In this case, while x^2 is a polynomial, x^-2 is not and also x^1/2 is not
Only x^2 is qualified as a polynomial because it is the only expression having its powers in positive integers
Hence; 0.5x^2 is a polynomial since it is raised to a positive whole number (integer)

Step-by-step explanation:
As the circle is not filled in, we know that the inequality must be > or <.
As the line is to the left of -1 (or lower than it). We know that x must be less than -1

Answer:
True, the scores are not valid.
Step-by-step explanation:
The test supposed to be measuring intelligence. We can assume that the intelligence of most people relatively stable (will not change too much over a short amount of time), and can expect it should go upward with brain growth and education. But the test seems to give a huge decrease from the first and second results. Then the third result is a huge increase that even higher than the first test.
We don't know the true value of the subject, but seeing the huge gap for every repetition we can tell that the test result lacks precision.
