Answer and Explanation

__________________________________________________________

According to Your Dictionary,

A monomial is an expression in algebra that contains one term, like 3xy. Monomials include numbers, whole numbers, and variables that are multiplied together, and variables that are multiplied together. Any number, all by itself, is a monomial, like 5 or 2,700. A monomial can also be a variable, like m or b. It can also be a combination of these, like 98b or 7rxyz.

There are two rules to remember about monomials:

__________________________________________________________

A monomial multiplied by a monomial is also a monomial.

2 * 2 = 4 (a monomial)

2 * x = 2x

2 * 6 = 12

2 * y = 2y

__________________________________________________________

A monomial multiplied by a constant is also a monomial.
