The video tutorial introduces polynomials, explaining their characteristics and how to write them in standard form. It covers the classification of polynomials based on their degree and number of terms, providing examples for better understanding. The tutorial aims to help students identify and classify polynomials effectively.

Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of a polynomial?

• It is an algebraic expression.

• It does not involve division by a variable.

• It includes negative exponents.

• It can have many terms.

What is the correct order for writing polynomials in standard form?

• Random order.

• Constant term first, then variables.

• Descending exponents, then alphabetical order.

• Alphabetical order, then descending exponents.
