in standard form means writing the highest exponent first
for example, a. 2x^5+3x^4-x³+ 2 is the right order

the leading coefficient is the constant to the left the the x with the highest exponent.
for example, a. the leading coefficient is 2, because 2 is with x^5, the highest exponent.
b. -10
c. -1
