Answer 1

The expression \( 7x^3y^2 + 2y^4 \) is a polynomial.

1. **Drop Down 1**: It **Does Represent** a polynomial.
2. **Drop Down 2**: It is a **Binomial** (since it has two terms).
3. To determine the degree of the polynomial, we find the degree of each term:
- The first term \( 7x^3y^2 \) has a degree of \( 3 + 2 = 5 \).
- The second term \( 2y^4 \) has a degree of \( 4 \).

The degree of the polynomial is the highest degree of its terms, which in this case is \( 5 \).

**Summary**:
- It **Does Represent** a polynomial.
- It is a **Binomial**.
- The degree of the polynomial is **5**.
