Standard form is when a polyonomial is written from highest degree to lowest degree
So, how are we going to check this..?
http://www.softschools.com/math/algebra/topics/writing_polynomials_in_standard_form/ will help u :)
The degree is the exponent
Okay what is the highest degree or Exponent
so highest degree is the highest little number that is there
which in this case is 5
+2 is always last because it has no exponent
The highest exp is 5. so we narrowed it down to A and B, right?
Don't tell her let her try :) she can do it
yes
now which one has the corresponding subtraction/addition signs :)
Yes and one of these has a small error that will tell you what equation is correct
The + and - signs? So it'd be A that is correct?
No, close
You need a -x^3 and -7x^2
Not plus
Why is that?
because in ur top polynomial thats what it says :)
Because in the original equation it wants -x^3 and -7x^2 so you need to keep your signs the same
Thank you both! I'd love to medal you both <3
I can medal the other person :)
thanks :)
Alright I just have 1 more left I'm sorta confused on. Mind helping guys?
