Rewrite 4-5x-x2+6x3 in descending powers of x.
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the powers of x in each term of the polynomial: 4 (which is x^0), -5x (which is x^1), -x^2, and 6x^3.
Recall that descending powers of x means arranging the terms starting from the highest power of x to the lowest power.
Determine the order of powers from highest to lowest: x^3, x^2, x^1, and x^0.
Rewrite the polynomial by placing the terms in order of descending powers: start with the term containing x^3, then x^2, then x^1, and finally the constant term.
Express the polynomial as .

Polynomial Terms and Powers
A polynomial is an expression consisting of variables raised to non-negative integer powers, combined using addition or subtraction. Each term includes a coefficient and a power of the variable, such as x^3 or x^2. Understanding the structure of polynomial terms is essential for rearranging them.
