Now you have:
$2.5k=50$

Simply divide both sides by 2.5 to find the value of k:

D. $3 y^{3}x+9 x^{2} y-2 y^{2} -4x$

Take each term and find the degree of the term and then put them in order from highest to lowest:
$y^{3}x=3+1=4$
$x^{2} y=2+1=3$
$y^{2}=2$
x=1

Remember a letter without an exponent is assumed to be a 1.

Hope that helps.
