Answer

polynomial, $n=4$. $F(x)=5x^4-\pi x^3+\frac{1}{2}$, $5x^4$, $\frac{1}{2}$.

Work Step by Step

Step 1. Given $F(x)=5x^4-\pi x^3+\frac{1}{2}$, we can determine it is a polynomial function. Step 2. We can identify the degree as $n=4$. Step 3. In standard form $F(x)=5x^4-\pi x^3+\frac{1}{2}$, we can identify the leading term as $5x^4$ and the constant term as $\frac{1}{2}$.
