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

p=-3xy+5x^2y.

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
5x^2y.

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.
