A. The polynomial has 2 terms: "4x^3" and "-2x".

B. The polynomial is 3rd degree, the degree of the first term. We don't know what a "terminology replacement" is supposed to be. It seems to be nonsense.

C. The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term. It is 4.

D. Standard form has the terms in descending order of degree. This polynomial is written in standard form.


Selections A and D are appropriate.
