Question

What would be the first and last terms of the polynomial if it was written in standard form? 2(x^2 − 5x +4) − (x +3)(x+ 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

So first term of the standard equation will be $x^2$ and last term will be 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given polynomial $2(x^2-5x+4)-(x+3)(x+2)$

We have to write this polynomial in standard form

So for writing in standard form we have to multiply this polynomial  and then subtraction

$=2x^2-10x+8-(x^2+5x+6)=2x^2-10x+8-x^2-5x-6=x^2-15x+2$

So first term of the standard equation will be $x^2$ and last term will be 2
