By identifying the largest exponent in each expression, we see that the answers are:

a) D = 3.

b) D = 5.

c) D = 0.

How to determine the degree of an expression?

The degree is just the largest exponent of the variable in an expression.

First, we have:

a) √3xyz - 5

The largest exponent is on the term √3*xyz is 3 (because we add the 3 exponents 1 of x, y, and z) so this expression has a degree of 3.

b)  y² - 3y⁵ -y + 2y³ - 4

Here the largest exponent is on the second term, so we can see that the degree is 5.

c) -10³

Here we don't have a variable, so this is a constant, which means that the degree is zero, because we could write:

-10³*x⁰

Where we use the fact that x⁰ = 1
