Find the Degree x^3-3x^2y+3xy^2-y^3

$x^{3} - 3 x^{2} y + 3 x y^{2} - y^{3}$

Step 1

Identify the exponents on the variables in each term, and add them together to find the degree of each term.

$x^{3} \to 3$

$- 3 x^{2} y \to 3$

$3 x y^{2} \to 3$

$- y^{3} \to 3$

Step 2

The largest exponent is the degree of the polynomial.

$3$
