Question

I need this quick!!

What are the constants in the equation 3x+2=9
a - 3
b - x
c - 2 and 9, constants have a fixed value
d - none of the above

Answer 1

Option C i.e. 2 and 9, constants have a fixed value is a correct option.

Explanation:

In algebra, a constant is basically a fixed value.

Sometimes, a constant is a number for a letter such as a, b, or c for a fixed number.

For example: in ''2x+7=3'', 7 and 3 are constants.

• Please note that the number with variable x in the term is a coefficient.

In our case:

Given the equation

`3x+2=9`

Therefore, 2 and 9 are constants, having a fixed value.

Thus, option C i.e. 2 and 9, constants have a fixed value is a correct option.
