Question

3 + 4ab+ 4ab - 5b + m

Answer 1

Answers:  

• Number of terms: 5
• Coefficients:  4, 4, -5 and 1
• Constant term:  3

===================================================

Explanation:

Each term is separated by a plus sign or a minus sign. We could rewrite the 4ab-5b portion as 4ab + (-5b) to help get everything separated by a plus sign.

The five terms are

• 3
• 4ab
• 4ab
• -5b
• m

The coefficients are the numbers just to the left of the variable. For a term like 4ab, the coefficient is 4. For the term "m", we can think of it as 1m so we can see it has a coefficient of 1.

The constant term is the term that doesn't have any variable attached to it. That would be the "3" as the first term.
