Answer 1

To rewrite the polynomial in standard form, we need to arrange the terms in descending order of the degree of \( x \).

The original polynomial is: \[ -6x^5 - \frac{1}{8} - x^3 \]

In standard form, we write it as: \[ -6x^5 - x^3 - \frac{1}{8} \]

So, the polynomial in standard form is: \[ -6x^5 - x^3 - \frac{1}{8} \]
