Question

Error Analysis On a math test a student, Jake, has to identify all the coefficients and constants of

the expression 6 +n + 5b. Jake says that 5 is a coefficient and 6 is a constant. Identify all the
coefficients and constants of the expression. What error might Jake have made? (Used, two separate answers as needed)

Answer 1

Jake doesn't include 1 as constant.

Explanation:

The given expression is 6+n+5b.

Jake says that 5 is a coefficient and 6 is a constant.

In this case, the coefficient is 5.

Constants are 6 and 1.

And variables are n and b.

Hence, Jake doesn't include 1 as constant.
