The degree of each term in a polynomial in two variables is the sum of the exponents in each term and the degree of the polynomial is the largest such sum. so sum the exponents of all the variables the largest sum is the degree . for example if i have 5x^2y^2+3xy+1 then summing the exponents 2+2 =4 1+1=2 so the degree will be 4 can you find the degree now .
