$f (x) = 7 x + 6 x^{2} - 1 - 3 x^{4}$

Step 1

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order.

$f (x) = a x^{2} + b x + c$

Step 2

Move $- 1$ .

$f (x) = 7 x + 6 x^{2} - 3 x^{4} - 1$

Step 3

Move $7 x$ .

$f (x) = 6 x^{2} - 3 x^{4} + 7 x - 1$

Step 4

Reorder $6 x^{2}$ and $- 3 x^{4}$ .

$f (x) = - 3 x^{4} + 6 x^{2} + 7 x - 1$
