Answer:

Degree: cubic

Number of terms: binomial

Explanation:

Look at the exponents to find the degree. Biggest exponent is 3, third power, that's a cubic, like a cube.. 3D.

There's a plus separating the two terms...Two terms-that's the "bi-" in binomial, like a bicycle or bifocals or binational. The prefix "bi-" means two.
