The polynomial in descending order would be:
x^12 + 3x^7 + 4x^3-9x.
It all has to do with their degrees (exponents).
I don't know what the answer choices are because you didn't post them, but that is the answer.
I hope this helps.
Hi, since p=-1, we can replace each p with -1, so -1x2-4x-1+4=6! 6 should be your answer!
8 action, 3 comedy, 5 drama....total = 16 dvd's
P(2 action, then a comedy)...without replacement
8/16 * 7/15 * 3/14 = (8 * 7 * 3) / (16 * 15 * 14) = 168/3360 = 1/20
