Question

What is the 2nd term when 6g2 − 3g4 + 2g − g3 + 5 is arranged in descending order?

Answer 1

This is how the expression should go:
-3g4 - g3 + 6g2 + 2g + 5
Which means that the second term is -g3. 

Answer 2

Answer:

second term is -g^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is

$6g^2 - 3g^4 + 2g - g^3 + 5$

First we arrange the terms in descending order

Descending order should have term with largest exponent

Largest exponent is g^4 and then g^3 then g^2 then g  and last term is constant

$- 3g^4 - g^3+ 6g^2 + 2g+ 5$

We got the expression in descending order

Here second term is -g^3
