Answer:
5 terms: m, 4, 2, -7m, 6 are the terms in question.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that terms here are separated from one another by either + or - signs.
m + 4 consists of two terms, since m and 4 are separated by the + operator.
2 - 7m are separated by the - operator, and so there are two terms here.
Completing the counting procedure, we get:
m (first term) + 4 (second term) + 2 (third term -7m (fourth term) + 6 (fifth term).
So, if we do NOT combine like terms, we have five (5) terms altogether.
If we DO combine like terms, we end up with two (2) terms:
m -7m + 4 + 2 + 6, or -6m + 12, or two (2) terms.
W- (3,4)
Z- (-1,1)

Y-(-4,1)
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the property that
