Answer:

sum

Explanation:

An algebraic expression is basically a combination of variables, constants and arithmetic operations :
+,-,* ,/

Constant is a quantity whose value remains fixed and whose value does not change . Constants are denoted by letters a , b , c ...

Variable is a quantity whose value may vary and does not remains constant.Variables are denoted by letters x , y, z, u ,v ...

Arithmetic operations are used to combine variables and constants .

For example :
2x+y+x+z+4x=7x+y+z

Here, the result we obtained i.e 7x+y+z is called a sum .
