![### Exercise: Homogeneity of Functions
#### Task:
For the following function, determine if the function is homogeneous in \( (x, y) \), and if yes, what degree is it?
#### Problem:
\[ f(x, y) = xy + y^2 - 3 \]
#### Instructions:
1. Review the concept of homogeneous functions.
2. Check if the given function can be expressed in the form \( k \cdot f(tx, ty) = t^n \cdot f(x, y) \) for some constant \( n \).
3. Determine the degree of homogeneity if applicable.
This exercise is designed to enhance your understanding of homogeneous functions in two variables, a crucial concept in advanced calculus and mathematical analysis.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fd0c98ddf-a789-427a-ba89-d4dfea0ab693%2Fd7c90584-b2e8-47cb-81d8-e308c118e6db%2F4lam9z_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)

Expert Solution

Step 1
In this question, concept of homogeneous function is applied.
Homogeneous Function
A homogeneous function has multiplicative scaling behaviour, which means that if all of its arguments are multiplied by a factor, its result is multiplied by a factor's power.
