Question 479094: After solving the polynomial (2x^2+11xy-15)+(6x^2-6x+2)-(-x^2-y-5), I came up with the answer as 9x^2+11xy-6x-y-8. But I don't know how to correctly order the variables inside the answer. I am pretty such that the highest power of x would go first, but how do you know if the xy or just the x would go first?

(2x^2+11xy-15)+(6x^2-6x+2)-(-x^2-y-5)
2x^2+11xy-15+6x^2-6x+2+x^2+y+5
9x^2+11xy+y-6x-10
Generally the highest order is written first.
xy & x & y may be written in any order.
