The degree of any monomial is just the sum of all of the exponents. So the degree of is and the degree of is . The degrees of 7 and are 0 and 5 respectively.

The degree of the entire polynomial is the largest degree of all of the monomials present. So the degree of is 15 since this is the largest degree among the individual monomials.
