    The arrangement should be based on the decreasing degree of the terms which may be determined by the variable x as it should come first in alphabetical order. The polynomial is then,

    10x³ + 2x²y + 2xy^4 - 3y²

    The degree is equal to the sum of the exponents. Thus, the answer is 5 and it is letter D.
