Question

What is the constant of the expression? 5x−2y+2.4

Answer 1

The 2.4 is the constant, because that number will never change. You don't know x or y yet, and those will change once you find those variables.

Hope this helped:)

Answer 2

The correct answer is the 2.4

The constant in an equation is the number(s) that don't have variables.

This is because variables can change the number they are attached to, making them not constant.

Hope this helps!
