Answer: The answer is a polynomial in two variables with degree 3.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to write the properties of the polynomial
We can see that the polynomial 'p' contains two unknown variables 'x' and 'y'.
Also, the degree of the polynomial is the degree of the expression
Therefore, the degree of the polynomial will be 2 + 1 = 3.
Thus,
(i) the polynomial has two unknown variables 'x' and 'y', and
(ii) Its degree is 3.
