8. Variable & Monomial Degrees
The degree of a variable is the number of times the
variable occurs as a factor. This just corresponds to the
exponent of the variable.
Example: -5x²y³
degree of x = 2 degree of y = 3
3y²
degree of y = 2
17
degree of 17 = 0 since there is no variable
-m
degree of m = 1
9. Monomial Degrees
The degree of a monomial is the sum of the degrees
of all variable factors.
Example: -5x²y³
degree = 2+3 = 5
7xy³
degree = 1+3 = 4
-2xyz²
degree = 1+1+2 = 4
