Question

Classify the following expression by degree and term:x3y + 5xyz

Answer 1

Its B

degree is 3+1=4(highest degree) and binomial coz it has 2 terms

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B is correct

4th degree binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial means it has two terms.

Degree means the highest exponent on its variables.

Given the expression:

$x^3y+5xyz$

In this expression :

There are two terms i.e, $x^3y , 5xyz$

⇒This expression is a binomial

To determine the degree:

Variables in $x^3y$ , $5xyz$ are a part of same term to determine the degree, we must add their exponents i.e,

In $x^3y$

Degree = 3 +1 = 4

In $5xyz$

Degree = 1+1 +1 = 3

By definition of degree:

Highest exponents is 4

Therefore, the given expression is 4th degree binomial
