Question

The degree of polynomial $2xy{z}^2-3x^2+z+1$ is .

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 2

Answer 1

The correct option is B 4

The degree of the polynomial is the highest power of the variables.

Here, the highest power of combined variable $2xy{z}^2$ is:
Power of $x=1$
Power of $y=1$
Power of $z=2$

Combined highest power $=1+1+2=4$

Hence, the degree of the polynomial is 4.
