Question

From the expression above, provide an example of each of the following: sum, term, product, factor, quotient, and coefficient. If any are not present right not present.

Answer 1

• Sum: 5x+1

,

• Term: 1

,

• Product: 3y

,

• Factor: 3

,

• Quotient: [9(5x+1)]/3y

,

• Coefficient: 3

Explanation:

Given the expression:

`9(5x+1)/3y`

• Sum:, A sum is an addition of two or more terms. ,An example is 5x+1.

,

• Term,: A term is a value on which the mathematical operations take place in an expression. It could be a constant or a variable. ,An example is 1.

,

• Product: ,Product is the multiplication of two values, either constants or variables. ,An example of a product is 3y.

,

• Factor: ,A factor is a number we can multiply together to get another number. In the number 3y,, the factors are 3 and y,.

,

• Quotient: ,This is the division of one term by another. An example is:

`(9(5x+1))/(3y)`

• Coefficient: ,The coefficient of a variable is the number beside the variable. For example, the coefficient of y in 3y is 3.
