To expand the expression \((2x - y^5)^2\) as a polynomial in standard form, we will follow the same process outlined in the example.

Step 1: Expand the Power

We need to expand the square of the binomial \((2x - y^5)\): \[ (2x - y^5)(2x - y^5) \]

Step 2: Apply the Distributive Property

We'll apply the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials) to expand: \[ = (2x)(2x) + (2x)(-y^5) + (-y^5)(2x) + (-y^5)(-y^5) \]

Step 3: Calculate Each Term

Now we calculate each term:

  • \((2x)(2x) = 4x^2\)
  • \((2x)(-y^5) = -2xy^5\)
  • \((-y^5)(2x) = -2xy^5\)
  • \((-y^5)(-y^5) = y^{10}\)

Step 4: Combine Like Terms

Now, we combine the like terms: \[ 4x^2 - 2xy^5 - 2xy^5 + y^{10} \] This simplifies to: \[ 4x^2 - 4xy^5 + y^{10} \]

Step 5: Write in Standard Form

Finally, we present the polynomial in standard form (from highest degree to lowest): \[ y^{10} - 4xy^5 + 4x^2 \]

Final Answer

Thus, the expansion of \((2x - y^5)^2\) in standard form is: \[ y^{10} - 4xy^5 + 4x^2 \]
