Question

U=(x^3+xy^2+y^3)/x degree of U

Answer 1

3

Answer 2

it is three since degree of the equation means the sum of powers in a term and hence when you consider the second term the numerator has degree 4 and the denominator 1 and so 4-1 = 3 so problem solved :)

Answer 3

but yea at the same time when a polynomial or lets say a function is defined in terms of a variable then the sum is taken with respect to that variable only .... so watch out for what the question says
