    Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor

    GCF = x^2

    Factor out the GCF (write the GCF first. Then in parenthesis, proceed to divide each term by the GCF.)

    x^2 (25x^2/x^2 + - 3x^4/x^2)

    Simplify each term in parenthesis

    x^2 (25 - 3x^2)

    Polynomial Degree: 4

    Leading Term: - 3x^4

    Leading Coefficient: - 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    25x^2 - 3x^4

    The first term 25x^2 is degree 2

    The second term 3x^4 is degree 4

    The polynomial is takes the highest degree of the terms, so it is degree 4
