Question

Write the polynomial in standard form. Then name the polynomial based on its degree and number of terms.

6x^5 + 6 - 2x^2

a. 6x^5 + 6 - 2x^2 ; not a polynomial
b. 6x^5 - 2x^2 + 6; seventh-degree trinomial
c. 6-2x^2+6x^5 ; quadratic binomial
d. 6x^5-2x^2 + 6; fifth degree trinomial

Please please help.

Answer 1

Simplify the sum
(3x^4 + 2x^2 + 1) + (5x^4-9x-7)

Answer 2

standard for means that the pornumerals are ordered by their indexes

so start with the term which has the highest power down to the constant term +6

hope this helps

Answer 3

for you simplifcation add the like terms

(3 + 5)x^4 + 2x^2 -9x + (1 -7)

just simplify

Answer 4

So for the second question would that make the answer be 8x^4 - 7x^2 -9x-6?

Answer 5

thats correct
