Question

Which of the following shows the polynomial below written in descending order

Answer 1

Option C

Explanation:

In this question the given polynomial is 4x³ + 3x⁷ - 9x + x¹²

If we rewrite it in the descending order of the powers then the polynomial will be

x¹² + 3x⁷ +4x³ + 9x

This polynomial matches with option C.

Option C is the answer.

Answer 2

When it asks for descending order of the polynomial it wants you to put the exponents in order from largest to smallest like so...

C.
`x^(12) +3x^(7) + 4x^(3)  -9x`

Hope this helped!
