$2 a b + a^{3} + 5 a^{2} b^{2} - 2 b^{3}$

Step 1

To write a polynomial in standard form, simplify and then arrange the terms in descending order.

$a x^{2} + b x + c$

Step 2

Move $2 a b$ .

$a^{3} + 5 a^{2} b^{2} - 2 b^{3} + 2 a b$

Step 3

Reorder $a^{3}$ and $5 a^{2} b^{2}$ .

$5 a^{2} b^{2} + a^{3} - 2 b^{3} + 2 a b$
