Identify the terms of the expression and their coefficients

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Terms: 4x, - $\frac{x}{2}$

Coefficients: 4, $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms of an expression are the numbers and variables that are being added. In this expression 4x is being added to - $\frac{x}{2}$ . This means that they must be the terms. The coefficients are the constants that come before a variable. A variable is an unknown number represented by a letter, in this case, x. So the coefficients are 4 and $\frac{1}{2}$ because both these numbers are being multiplied by a variable.
