Answer:
b) three terms
c) -1
d) 7
e) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
put the expression in decreasing exponent order with the constant at the end
-x⁴ - 2x + 7
With this format it is easy to find the leading coefficient which is the coefficient of the term with the highest exponent; in this case you only see a negative sign but every variable, if no other coefficient is present, has an invisible '1'
