SOLUTION: write each polynomial in standard form. then name each polynomial based on its degree and number of terms. {{{4y^3-4y^2+3-y}}} i tried this: (4)(y^3)=4y^3 (4)(y^2)=4y^2

Question 864529: write each polynomial in standard form. then name each polynomial based on its degree and number of terms.
4y%5E3-4y%5E2%2B3-y
i tried this:
(4)(y^3)=4y^3
(4)(y^2)=4y^2
4xy^3-4xy^2=4y^3-4y^2
4y^3-4y^2+3
4y^3-4y^2+3y

Standard form means in descending order of exponent so just re-arrange the terms in the equation.
4y%5E3-4y%5E2%2B3-y=4y%5E3-4y%5E2-y%2B3
Degree is 3 with 4 terms.

Standard form means placing the terms with highest degree first.


4y%5E3-4y%5E2-y%2B3


The highest exponent lends a name: 0: constant, 1: linear, 2: quadratic, 3: cubic, 4: quartic, 5: quintic


Number of terms lends a name: 1: monomial, 2: binomial, 3: trinomial, 4 or more: polynomial,


This is a cubic polynomial
