Determine which polynomial is in standard form.
Definition of standard form
A polynomial is in standard form when its terms are arranged in descending order of their degrees.
Analyze the first polynomial
The polynomial \(2x^{4} + 6 + 24x^{5}\) is not in standard form because the terms are not in descending order of degrees.
Analyze the second polynomial
The polynomial \(6x^{2} - 9x^{3} + 12x^{4}\) is not in standard form because the terms are not in descending order of degrees.
Analyze the third polynomial
The polynomial \(19x + 6x^{2} + 2\) is not in standard form because the terms are not in descending order of degrees.
Analyze the fourth polynomial
The polynomial \(23x^{9} - 12x^{4} + 18\) is in standard form because the terms are arranged in descending order of degrees.
\(\boxed{23x^{9} - 12x^{4} + 18}\)
\(\boxed{23x^{9} - 12x^{4} + 18}\) is the polynomial in standard form.
