Write in Standard Form -1-6x^2-(x^4)/6

$- 1 - 6 x^{2} - \frac{x^{4}}{6}$

Step 1

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order.

$a x^{2} + b x + c$

Step 2

Move $- 1$ .

$- 6 x^{2} - \frac{x^{4}}{6} - 1$

Step 3

Reorder $- 6 x^{2}$ and $- \frac{x^{4}}{6}$ .

$- \frac{x^{4}}{6} - 6 x^{2} - 1$

Step 4

Reorder terms.

$- (\frac{1}{6} x^{4}) - 6 x^{2} - 1$

Step 5

Remove parentheses.

$- \frac{1}{6} x^{4} - 6 x^{2} - 1$
