Question

We can describe 3x-2 as an expression.

how can we describe the parts of the expression the arrows point to

Answer 1

we can describe the parts of the expression that the arrows

point to 3x-2 such as:

↑(x variable)

`3x-2` ← (2 constant)

↓

(3 coefficient)

Explanation:

Given the expression

`3x-2`

• As we have to describe the parts of the expression the arrows

point to
`3x-2`.

we can describe the parts of the expression that the arrows

point to 3x-2 such as:

↑(x variable)

`3x-2` ← (2 constant)

↓

(3 coefficient)

Therefore, it is clear that:

• The upper arrow '↑' points to the variable part 'x' of expression which is 'x'.

• The lower arrow '↓' points to the coefficient part of the expression which is '3'.

• The arrow '←' points to the constant part of the expression which is '2'.
