Write a polynomial in descending power order then label the degree and LC

The video tutorial explains how to identify and classify polynomial expressions by focusing on the degree and leading coefficient. It emphasizes writing terms in descending order of powers and clarifies the roles of zero and first powers. The tutorial also highlights teaching techniques used to illustrate these concepts.

Explain why X to the zero power is equal to 1.

What does it mean for the powers of a polynomial to go in descending order?
