Write in Standard Form -1/9x^2-x^5-7x+3x^4+1

$- \frac{1}{9} x^{2} - x^{5} - 7 x + 3 x^{4} + 1$

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

Combine $x^{2}$ and $\frac{1}{9}$ .

$- \frac{x^{2}}{9} - x^{5} - 7 x + 3 x^{4} + 1$

Step 3

Reorder.

Move $- 7 x$ .

$- \frac{x^{2}}{9} - x^{5} + 3 x^{4} - 7 x + 1$

Move $- \frac{x^{2}}{9}$ .

$- x^{5} + 3 x^{4} - \frac{x^{2}}{9} - 7 x + 1$

Step 4

Reorder terms.

$- x^{5} + 3 x^{4} - (\frac{1}{9} x^{2}) - 7 x + 1$

Step 5

Remove parentheses.

$- x^{5} + 3 x^{4} - \frac{1}{9} x^{2} - 7 x + 1$
