x^4 -6x^2 . Degree is 4, it is binomial

Explanation:

In standard form the highest degree term come first followed by terms of lower degree in descending order. The given polynomial has x^4 as the highest degree term. So, it would come first followed by the other term 6x^2. This is a polynomial of degree 4. Since it has only two terms it would be binomial
