CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. Put λx,λy\lambda x, \lambda y in place of x,yx, y and factor out the power of λ\lambda.

  2. λ2\lambda^{2} comes out, so the degree is 2.

Worth noting

3 counts sin⁡yx\sin\frac{y}{x} as degree 1; it has degree 0, so x2sin⁡yxx^{2}\sin\frac{y}{x} stays at 2.
