To get the degree of a polynomial of tow variable you must add the exponent in each term. The biggest sum is the degree.
1) first term exponent 2, second term exponent 4, last term exponents 1+ 2 = 3... then the degree is 4
2) only one term... exponents 2+1 =3, then the degree is 3

1) 4. The term -2y^4 has the highest degree of 4
2) 3. The term 4x^2y has a degree of 3. (Add the exponents, 2 + 1)

Basically you just look at the largest power and that will tell you what degree the polynomial is.
1. 4 (d)

4,3, add the exponents of the y's and x's aof each term , the largest sum is the degree of the polynome

These all are NOT polynomials. Polynomials have only ONE variable
