Firstly, you can combine like terms, or terms that have the same variable and exponents.
24x and 4x both have the variable "x" so it can be combined to make 28x
A coefficient is basically just the number that's used to multiply the variable
In this case, the variable is "x" and the number that will be multiplied to x is 28.
<em>The coefficient is 28.</em>

Answer:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack (
), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack (
), in monetary units, divided by the change in time (
), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:


The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.
Input is the same as the x-term and output is the same as the y-term.
For example, take a look at the image provided with thee table.
Looking at the first box of our table, notice that if we subtract 5 from 1, we get -4 and if we subtract 5 from 2 we get -3 and if we subtract 5 from 3, we get -2. Notice that in each case, we're subtracting 5 from the input to get the output.
I attached a table so you can practice if you'd like to. All you have to do is subtract 5 from each input and you will end up with the output. The first few are done for you. I also provided an answer key in the next image so you can check your work.
The last one might be a little trick. In the input, we have n which is a variable that represents any number. If we want to find the nth term, we simply subtract 5. So we have n - 5.
First image is practice if you'd like and the second is the key.
If you don't want to do it, no worries.
