Describe the expression.Cuad2 * 5+7jog vollsynsinontbnilo++7(3 + 13) evollarWhich of the following describes (7 in the expression above?A. factorB.(B, sumC. quotientD. product

Answer 1

The expression is given below as

`2*5+7(3+13)`

Concept:

We will have to explain the options so we can figure out what the final answer is

Sum:

The result is obtained by adding numbers

Quotient:

a quotient is a quantity produced by the division of two numbers.

Product:

A product is the result of multiplication,

Factor:

factor, in mathematics, a number or algebraic expression that divides another number or expression evenly—i.e., with no remainder.

Step 1:

`2*5=10(represents\text{ the product of 2 and 5\rparen}`

We will then have to deal with the parenthesis

`3+13=16(sum\text{ of 3 and 13\rparen}`

We will then have to multiply 7 by 16 before adding to 10

Hence,

7 in the expression above represents a factor because after adding 3 and 13, you would need to multiply 2 and 5. Then, you will multiply 7 and 16 which shows that 7 in the expression above represents a factor. 7 is a factor common to both 3 and 16

Therefore,

The final answer is OPTION A
