Question

Write the polynomial in standard form. Then name the polynomial based on it's degree and number of terms.

6 - 12x + 13x² - 4x²

Answer 1

Two degree trinomial

Explanation:

The given equation is:

`6-12x+13x^2-4x^2`

Simplifying the above equation, we get

=
`6-12x+9x^2`

=
`9x^2-12x+6`

Which is the required simplified form.

Now, since the degree is the highest power of the polynomial, therefore it is a two degree polynomial.

Also, this polynomial consists of three terms, therefore the simplified equation is two degree trinomial.

Answer 2

6 - 12x + 13x^2 - 4x^2 in standard form is 9x^2 - 12x + 6.
The polynomial is of degree 2 and has three terms.
