QuestionDetermine the form of the polynomial: (factored, standard, or mixed).
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are given a polynomial expression. . We need to identify if it is in factored, standard, or mixed form.
STEP 2
Let's first understand what each form means1. Factored form A polynomial is in factored form when it is written as a product of its factors.
2. Standard form A polynomial is in standard form when it is written as a sum or difference of terms with non-negative integer exponents, arranged in descending order of their degrees.
. Mixed form A polynomial is in mixed form when it is neither completely in factored form nor in standard form.
STEP 3
Now, let's look at the given polynomial
STEP 4
We can see that the given polynomial is written as a product of factors. Therefore, it is in factored form.
