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

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

Explanation:

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."
