Write in Standard Form (x^2)/5+1-x^5

$\frac{x^{2}}{5} + 1 - x^{5}$

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 $1$ .

$\frac{x^{2}}{5} - x^{5} + 1$

Step 3

Reorder $\frac{x^{2}}{5}$ and $- x^{5}$ .

$- x^{5} + \frac{x^{2}}{5} + 1$

Step 4

Reorder terms.

$- x^{5} + \frac{1}{5} x^{2} + 1$
