9x+3x^2-4x^5+x^3+2x^4 standard polynomial form

A polynomial in standard form has terms of decreasing degree left to right. Yours put in that form is

... -4x^5 +2x^4 +x^3 +3x^2 +9x

the functions have the same rate of change i think. i narrowed it down to this answer and "the rate of change of tour 1 is greater" but i got it wrong using that answer so im assuming its the answer above. (this is a question i also answered from the iready site if anyone needs a reference)
