First, combine like terms: $(-12x^6 + 7x^6) + (12x^5 - 10x^5) - 14x^4 = -5x^6 + 2x^5 - 14x^4$. Then, arrange in descending order, which is already achieved in the simplification.

Collect Like Terms and Then Arrange in Descending Order −12x6−14x4+12x5+7x6−10x5-12 x^{6}-14 x^{4}+12 x^{5}+7 x^{6}-10 x^{5}−12x6−14x4+12x5+7x6−10x5

Collect Like Terms and Then Arrange in Descending Order $-12 x^{6}-14 x^{4}+12 x^{5}+7 x^{6}-10 x^{5}$
