Question

Consider the polynomial: – 2x5 + + 1 Which polynomial represents the standard form of the original polynomial?

Answer 1

-2x^5 + 1 =
-2x^5 + 0x^4 + 0x^3 + 0x² + 0x + 1

Answer 2

-2x^5 + 0x^4 + 0x^3 + 0x^2+ 0x + 1

Explanation:

A polynomial is a function of the form f(x) = a^nx^n + a^n−1 . x^n−1 + ... + a^2.x^2 + a^1. x + a0 . The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of x in its expression.

– 2x^5 + 1 = -2x^5 + 0x^4 + 0x^3 + 0x^2+ 0x + 1

Hope this will helpful.
