The constant is 6 because it's the term without any variables attached to it.

The coefficients for terms 3x and 2y are 3 and 2 in that order. The coefficients are the numbers to the left of the variable.

The variables are x and y. They are placeholders for numbers to be plugged in later.

There are 3 terms where each term is separated by a plus sign or minus sign. The 3 terms are: 6, 3x, and 2y.

  1. Constant: 6, which is a term that does not have any variables.
  2. Coefficient: of x is 3, which is the number that multiplies the variable x. Similarly, the coefficient of y is 2, which is the number that multiplies the variable y.
  3. There are three terms in the expression, which are 6, 3x, and 2y.
