#color(magenta)(=>-2v^3-6v^2-17v#

#=>color(red)(" cubic trinomial."#

To write a polynomial in standard form, we need to arrange it according to the power:

#4−5v−12v−6v^2−4−2v^3#

#=>-2v^3-6v^2-5v-12v+cancel4-cancel4#

#color(magenta)(=>-2v^3-6v^2-17v#

Since this polynomial has 3 terms & the degree is 3, it will be a #color(red)("cubic trinomial."#

~Hope this helps! :)
