To classify the given polynomials based on the number of terms, we have:

  1. 5xy^6 - This is a monomial (B) because it consists of one term.

  2. 3m + 8m^2 - 8m^5 - This is a trinomial (C) because it consists of three terms.

  3. 17x^10 - 8x^7 - This is a binomial (D) because it consists of two terms.

  4. 5 - 6x - 2x^2 - 4x^5 - This is an other form of polynomial (A) because it consists of four terms (not classified as mono-, bi-, or tri-).

Arranged correctly:

  1. 5xy^6 - B. monomial
  2. 3m + 8m^2 - 8m^5 - C. trinomial
  3. 17x^10 - 8x^7 - D. binomial
  4. 5 - 6x - 2x^2 - 4x^5 - A. other form of polynomial
