Question

13x -2y -5x +8

1. How many terms are in the expression?
2. Which terms are “like terms”?
3. Are there any constants? If so, what are they?
4. What are the variables in the expression?
5. What are the coefficients in the expression?

Answer 1

there are 4 terms

13x and - 5x are like terms

+8 is the only constant term

yes there are variables

the coefficients are ,13,-2, and-5

Explanation:

1. A term is any section of a equation that has to do with an operation such as multipulcation or subtraction.

2. like terms are terms that share a common variable with another term.

3. Constants are number in an equation that have no variable and don't change

4. variables are letters used in an equation

5. coeffecients are the number a next to variables make sure to take the negitave or positive sign in front of it to account when solving your problem. variables with out a number in front of them always have a coefficient of 1.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. How many terms are in the expression?

The terms are sorted by looking at the sing/indicator in front of them. For this expression there are 4 terms

13x, -2y, -5x, and 8

2. Which terms are “like terms”?

13x and -5x are like terms.

3. Are there any constants? If so, what are they?

Yes there is a constant terms and it's 8

4. What are the variables in the expression?

The variables in this expression are x, and y

5. What are the coefficients in the expression?

Coefficients is the number in front of variables in this expression the coefficients are 13, -2, and -5
