#2x^5-x^4+5x+5#

Explanation:

Standard form means writing the expression, starting with the term that has the highest power of the variable, in this case #x^5#, followed by terms with decreasing powers until the last term, usually a constant.

This can be expressed algebraically as.

#a_nx^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+a_(n-2)x^(n-2)+............ +a_0x^0#

where #a_n" represents the coefficient "#

#rArr5x+5-x^4+2x^5=2x^5-x^4+5x+5#
