Q6 of 84 Page 39

Write the following polynomials in standard form.

i. m3 + 3 + 5m


ii.

i. In the standard form of any polynomial it is necessary for the power of the variable to go in descending order for each term.

So the standard form of this polynomial is as follows:


m3 + 5m + 3


ii. In the standard form of any polynomial it is necessary for the power of the variable to go in descending order for each term that is first term should consist of variable with highest power, second term should contain the variable with second highest power and so on.


So the standard form of this polynomial is as follows:


y5 + 2y4 + 3y3 –y2 -7y – 1/2
