Answer:

1) Quartic (if asking about degree)

2) 2 terms

3) 8

4) 3x^4

5) 3

Explanation:

1) since the degree of the polynomial is 4, it is classified as a quartic polynomial.

2) there are 2 terms (it's a binomial)

3) constant term is the term in a polynomial without a variable, in this case 8

4) leading term is the term with the highest degree throughout the whole polynomial, in this case it is 3x^4

5) leading coefficient is the coefficient to the term with the highest degree, in this case this would be regarding the term 3x^4, meanign the coefficient is the 3

It's totally okay to be confused! u got this mate :D
