Verified Answer :

descending order...
5x^4 + 3x^3 + 6x^2 + 1...first term is 5x^4

Answer:

the first term is \(5x^4\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the polynomial \(1+6x^2+5x^4+3x^3\)

Arrange this polynomial in descending order. In other words we arrange this polynomial having exponent from greatest to smallest.

Exponents from descending order is given by

4, 3, 2, 0

So, the polynomial when arranged in descending order is given by

\(5x^4+3x^3+6x^2+1\)

Therefore, the first term is \(5x^4\)
