Answer:

One.

Explanation:

2x itself is one term, so (2x)^9 is 2^9*x^9= 512x^9. It is still one term.

Answer:

1 term

Explanation:

2x^9 is one term, consisting of a coefficient of 2 and a variable to the 9th power.

If you mean (2x)^9, it is still one term: 512x^9, with a coefficient of 512 and a variable to the 9th power.
