Answer

$3z^4-2z^2-5z$ $quartic$ $trinomial$

Work Step by Step

This is our original problem: $3z^4-5z-2z^2$ We need to put the polynomial in standard form by ordering from highest degree, to lowest. $3z^4-2z^2-5z$ Now we need to name the polynomial. It is a trinomial because it has three terms. Since its highest degree is 4, it is a quartic trinomial.
