Order the polynomial -x 4 y 2 + 7x 3 y 3 - 3xy 5 + 2x 2 y 4 in descending powers of x.

Answer 1

See under for the sequence

Explanation:

The term with -X⁴ comes first because 4 is the highest power of x.

Then comes 7x³y³ because 3 is the second highest power

Then 2x²y⁴ because 2 comes next

Then -3xy⁵ because x is raised to 1 power which is the lowest
