ANSWER :

C. 5

EXPLANATION :

The Leading coefficient is the coefficient of the leading term.

The leading term is the term with the highest degree.

From the problem, we have the polynomial :

[tex]f(x)=9-2x+6x^2+5x^3[/tex]

The term with the highest degree is 5x^3

Therefore, the leading coefficient is 5
