Question

Write the factors of each term and the degree of expression x^2y^2+2x^2y^3-9

Answer 1

Answer:

There are too many factors. (36 factors)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the factors of each term and the degree of expression.

• $x^2y^2+2x^2y^3-9$

Divisors can be negative as well as positive, although sometimes the term is restricted to positive divisors. For example, there are six divisors of 4; they are 1, 2, 4, −1, −2, and −4, but only the positive ones (1, 2, and 4) would usually be mentioned. -Wikipedia-

If $x^ay^bx^c$ is given, number of factors are $(a+1)(b+1)(c+1)$.

• $x^2y^2$, 9 factors

• $2x^2y^3$, 24 factors

• $-9$, 3 factors (positive factors)

The degree of given polynomial is

• 2 for x
• 3 for y
• 5 for x and y
