Question

Write the following equation in standard form: x + x4 + 6x +1

Answer 1

To answer this question, we need to know that the standard form of an equation of this type is written as follows:

`ax^5+bx^4+cx^3\ldots`

We have that the polynomial given is:

`(8)/(7)x^3+x^4+6x+1`

In the standard form, we need to write it as follows:

`x^4+(8)/(7)x^3+0x^2+6x+1=x^4+(8)/(7)x^3+6x+1`

Therefore, the correct answer is option C. This is the standard form for this fourth-degree polynomial.
