Which represents the polynomial written in standard form? 4 m minus 2 m to the 4th power negative 6 m squared plus 9
Answer
A
negative 2 m to the 4th power negative 6 m squared plus 4 m plus 9
B
2 m to the 4th power negative 6 m squared minus 4 m plus 9
C
9 minus 6 m squared plus 4 m negative 2 m to the 4th power
D
9 plus 4 m plus 2 m to the 4th power negative 6 m squared
Explanation
Standard form lists polynomial terms from the highest exponent to the lowest. Reordering 4m − 2m⁴ − 6m² + 9 gives −2m⁴ − 6m² + 4m + 9, which is choice A.
