Answer:

20. n + 4n - 7n - 1

Terms: 4 terms

Like terms: 3 like terms-- n, 4n, and 7n

Coefficients: 4, 7

Constants: 1

21. -3d + 8 - d - 2

Terms: 4 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- -3d, d

Coefficients: -3

Constants: 8, -2

22. 5x + 4 + 9x

Terms: 3 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- 5x, 9x

Coefficients: 5, 9

Constants: 4

23. 2 + 3d + d

Terms: 3 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- 3d, d

Coefficients: 3

Constants: 2

24. -3r + 7 - 3r - 12

Terms: 5 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- -3r, -3r

Coefficients: 3, 3

Constants: 2

Explanation:

Terms are the contents in the equation of such. For example, 10+4n. There are two terms. Like terms, are when the terms have the same variable. For example, 4m and 8m. Coefficients are the number next to a variable. For example, 9x. 9 is the coefficient. Constants are numbers without a variable. Numbers like 7, 8, 9, 10-- they don't have variables so they are constants in an equation. Now, knowing this information lets get to work!

20. n + 4n - 7n - 1

Terms: 4 terms

Like terms: 3 like terms-- n, 4n, and 7n

Coefficients: 4, 7

Constants: 1

21. -3d + 8 - d - 2

Terms: 4 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- -3d, d

Coefficients: -3

Constants: 8, -2

22. 5x + 4 + 9x

Terms: 3 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- 5x, 9x

Coefficients: 5, 9

Constants: 4

23. 2 + 3d + d

Terms: 3 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- 3d, d

Coefficients: 3

Constants: 2

24. -3r + 7 - 3r - 12

Terms: 5 terms

Like terms: 2 like terms-- -3r, -3r

Coefficients: 3, 3

Constants: 2

Hope this helps!!
