Step-by-step explanation

We must classify the following polynomial:


9x^2y-6x-5y^2.

Looking at this polynomial, we see that:

• it has three terms ⇒ it is a trinomial,

,

• the term with the highest degree is 9x²y with degree 2 + 1 = 3 ⇒ the polynomial has degree 3.

We conclude that we have a trinomial with a degree of 3.

Answer

It is a trinomial with a degree of 3.
