It is the number (coefficient) that belongs to the variable of the highest degree in a polynomial.
The leading term in a polynomial is the term with the highest degree, which determines the polynomial's end behavior and its classification (e.g., linear, quadratic, cubic). It is typically expressed in the form ( ax^n ), where ( a ) is a non-zero coefficient and ( n ) is a non-negative integer. The leading term is crucial for understanding the polynomial's growth as the input values become very large or very small.
Anywhere. Provided it is not zero, and number p can be the leading coefficient of a polynomial. And any number q can be the constant term.
If the polynomial is in terms of the variable x, then look for the term with the biggest power (the suffix after the x) of x. That term is the leading term. So the leading term of x2 + 5 + 4x + 3x6 + 2x3 is 3x6 If you are likely to do any further work with the polynomial, it would be a good idea to arrange it in order of the descending powers of x anyway.

It is the Coefficient. It only refers to the given term that it is front. e.g. 2x^2 - 3x + 1 The '2' in front of 'x^2' only refers to 'x^2'. The '-3' in front of 'x' is the coefficient of '-3' The '1' is a constant.
There cannot be such a polynomial. If a polynomial has rational coefficients, then any complex roots must come in conjugate pairs. In this case the conjugate for 2-3i is not a root. Consequently, either (a) the function is not a polynomial, or (b) it does not have rational coefficients, or (c) 2 - 3i is not a root (nor any other complex number), or (d) there are other roots that have not been mentioned. In the last case, the polynomial could have any number of additional (unlisted) roots and is therefore indeterminate.
Leading coefficient: Negative. Order: Any even integer.

A polynomial function of least degree with rational coefficients and a leading coefficient of 1 that has the zeros -7 and -4 can be constructed using the fact that if ( r ) is a zero, then ( (x - r) ) is a factor. Therefore, the polynomial can be expressed as ( f(x) = (x + 7)(x + 4) ). Expanding this, we get ( f(x) = x^2 + 11x + 28 ). Thus, the polynomial function is ( f(x) = x^2 + 11x + 28 ).
