We
know that
<span>
1) The degree of a polynomial is the highest degree of its terms</span>
<span>2) The leading term in a polynomial is the highest degree term</span>
<span>3) The leading coefficient of a polynomial is the coefficient of the leading term</span>
Therefore
The coefficient
of first term of a polynomial written in standard (descending order) form is the
coefficient of the leading term, thus is called the leading coefficient.
the answer is
The leading coefficient<span>

C. Negative because since the neutral atom stands at 0 and positive ions are 1+ and electrons are negative if it gains the electron ( negative ) it will become negative.
<u>Answer:
</u>
f(x) = 3(x+2)(x-2)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:
</u>
We are given the following the quadratic function and we are to rewrite it in intercept or factored form:
We can factorize the given function so taking the common factors out of it to get:
The term 
is in the form 
so it can further be factorized to give:
Therefore, the factored form of the given quadratic function is f(x) = 3(x+2)(x-2).
