First, I would rearrange the terms into descending order by power:
k(x) = $-3x^3+4$ .

Leading coefficient is "-3"
Degree is "3" (highest power of a term)
Type: Polynomial, two terms (binomial)
Constant term: "4"

What is the degree, type, leading coefficient, and constant term of k(x)=4-3x^3k(x)=4-3x^3?
