@agent0smith can you help me?

magentama202 · Answer

I dont understand the degrees/how to count them

agent0smith · Answer

Just work out the degree of each one first. 

Eg. the degree of $$\large 7xyz^2$$ is 4, because you add the exponents on the x, y and z (x and y have a 1 exponent, z has 2), since they're all multiplied together.

agent0smith · Answer

Another example $$\large 2x^5y^4 + 7ab+9x$$the degree of the first term is 9, because 5 and 4 are the x and y exponents

the degree of the second term is 2 because the a and b both have a 1 exponent

degree of the last term is 1, because the x exponent is 1

so the degree of this one is 9 (the highest term's degree)
