(a) -3x⁸ + 2x⁵ + 4x³  (b) 8  (c) 3  (d) - 3x⁸  (e) -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Standard form means to put the terms in order from largest degree (exponent) to smallest degree.

  Degrees should be written in this order: 8 > 5 > 3

 -3x⁸ + 2x⁵ + 4x³

b) The degree of the polynomial is the largest exponent.

8

c) Terms are seperated by plus and minus signs

    -3x⁸ ,  2x⁵ ,  4x³   are the terms

3

d) The leading term is the term with the largest degree.

    -3x⁸

-3x⁸

e) The leading coefficient is the number attached to the largest degree.

-3
