Answer:

it cannot be modeled with a rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

let's eliminate the wrong answers first

1. it cannot be modeled with all positive tiles --- this incorrect because it is all positive, so it CAN be modeled with all positive tiles

2. it can only be modeled with an odd number of tiles -- not true, because 2x^2 is  even number of tiles

3. it can be modeled with a square -- to be modeled as a square, the polynomial have to be factored into square ie (x+2)², but cann't be factored as square, so again not true

therefore, first one is the answer. because you cannot factor the polynomial as such (x+2)(x+3), so it cannot be modeled with a rectangle.
