$- 10 x^{4} - x^{3} + x^{5} - \frac{1}{8}$

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 $- x^{3}$ .

$- 10 x^{4} + x^{5} - x^{3} - \frac{1}{8}$

Step 3

Reorder $- 10 x^{4}$ and $x^{5}$ .

$x^{5} - 10 x^{4} - x^{3} - \frac{1}{8}$
