Respuesta :
recall that the degree of a polynomial or a monomial in this cases, comes from the term with the highest degree.
now, this is a monomial, and is just one term, its degree will come from the sum of all its variables' exponents, so we can see this one as,
[tex] \bf -9\implies -9x^0\textit{ or }-9y^0\impliedby \textit{the exponent of the variable is }\stackrel{\stackrel{degree}{\downarrow }}{0} [/tex]
recall that anything raised to 0 is 1, except for 0 itself, so -9x⁰ is really -9*1 or -9.
Answer:would the answer not correctly be 1?
