Question

Given the polynomial to the right, find:

a. The Standard Form = 12x^3 - 4x^5 + 3 - 15x
b. The Leading Term = -4x^5
c. The Leading Coefficient = -4
d. The Degree = 5
e. The Constant = 3

Answer 1

The polynomial is written in standard form as 12x^3 - 4x^5 + 3 - 15x, with the leading term being -4x^5, leading coefficient -4, degree 5, and constant term 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given polynomial can be rewritten in standard form as:
12x^3 - 4x^5 + 3 - 15x

The leading term of the polynomial is -4x^5.

The leading coefficient is -4.

The degree of the polynomial is 5.

The constant term is 3.
