Lincoln Fisher · Answer 1

box 1 is a monomial

box 2 is a binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

reasoning is a monomial times a monomial remains a monomial and a binomial times a monomial becomes a binomial when it cant be farther simplified. (if you want to add the answers for box 1 is 3x^5 and the answer for box 2 is 4x^5-x^4)
