Rewrite the following polynomial in standard form.

Question

x, plus, 9, minus, 7, x, cubed, minus, x, to the power 4
x+9−7x
3
−x
4

Answer 1

To rewrite the polynomial \( x + 9 - 7x^3 - x^4 \) in standard form, we want to organize it in descending order of the powers of \( x \).

Starting with the polynomial:

\[ -x^4 - 7x^3 + x + 9 \]

Now we arrange the terms by their degrees:

\[ -x^4 - 7x^3 + 0x^2 + x + 9 \]

The standard form of the polynomial is:

\[ -x^4 - 7x^3 + x + 9 \]

Thus, the final answer is:

\[ -x^4 - 7x^3 + x + 9 \]
