Answer:

Option 3- the cubic term

Explanation:

Given : Polynomial
d^2+d^3-d+3

To find : To express the polynomial in standard form, which term should be written first?

Solution :

The given polynomial
d^2+d^3-d+3

The standard form of polynomial is arranged according to the higher degree to the lowest degree.

The degree is the power, first the higher degree then the lower and last the constant term.

In our given polynomial the highest degree is 3 so it is the first term of the polynomial.

The standard form is
d^3+d^2-d+3

Therefore, The required result is the cubic term is written first.

When you want to write a polynomial, you should write the term with the highest degree first.
Here, it should go like this: d^3 + d^2 - d + 3
This means that the term which should be written first is the cubic term.
