Question

write a quartic trinomial with a leading coefficient of 2 using standard form

Answer 1

quartic => polynolial degree 4, i.e. the highest exponent of the variable is 4

trinomial=> three terms

leading coefficient = the coefficient in front of the term with the highest exponent.

standard form=> ax^4 + bx^3 + c^2 + dx + e

Solution:

2x^4 + x^3 + 0x^2 + 0x + 30

which is equal to 2x^4 + x^3 + 30: this is a quartic trinomial with leading coefficient 2, written in standard form.
