Answer:
- leading coefficient: 2
- degree: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.
Your answer is 26,453
Although I don't feel as if this is a homework question, I will still show the work.
Work:
Step 1: 999 + 999 = 1,998
Step 2: 1,998 + 999 = 2,997
Step 3: 2,997 + 23,456 = 26,453
Hope I was able to help! :)
Y=-2(x-4)^2-6
The -6 makes it shift from origin(0,0) to (0,-6)
Then the -4 inside with x, makes it shift to the right by for, so the center would be now instead of (0,0), (4,-6).
As it has a negative A factor, it is a parabola open downwards, so the center is the maximum value.
Answer: (4,-6)
Hope you get it!
