Question

Amelia makes $8 per hour at her job and then earns an additional $15 for every tablet she sells. She uses the expression 8h + 15t to keep track of her earnings.

Do the following:
Part A: Identify the coefficients and variables in the expression.
Part B: How many terms are in the expression, what are they, and how do you know?
Part C: Which term in the expression shows the total earned for tablets sold?

Answer 1

`E = 8h+15t`

Explanation:

Given that Amelia makes $8 per hour at her job and then earns an additional $15 for every tablet she sells.

`E = 8h+15t`

where E = earnings

Part A: Coefficients are 8 and 15 and variables are h and 5.

Part B: There are two terms . They are unlike terms and connected by + sign.

Part C:

Total earnings =
`E = 8h+15t`

Answer 2

Part A : The coefficients in the expression are "8" and "15. The variables in the expression are "h" and "t".

Part B: There are actually two terms in the expression and they are "8h" and "15t". Terms are separated by a plus sign or a minus sign.

Part C: "15t" is the term in the expression that shows the total earned for tablets sold.
