Question

Which of the following is in the standard form of the polynomial expression $7x^3+2x^0+5x^1$?

• A. $7x^3+2x^0+5x^1$
• B. $2x^0+5x^1+7x^3$
• C. $7x^3+5x^1+2x^0$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C $7x^3+5x^1+2x^0$

We know that polynomial expression is in standard form when the terms are ordered from highest to lowest degree.
Degree of the term $7x^3$ is $3$
Degree of the term $2x^0$ is $0$
Degree of the term $5x^1$ is $1$
$\therefore 7x^3+5x^1+2x^0$ is the standard form of the polynomial expression.
