Question

• What is the constant term in the expression 3x + 11?

Answer 1

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

A constant term in an expression or equation contains no variables. In other words, it’s just number on its own. For example: f (x) = 2x2 + 3 (the constant term is 3). Other examples of constant terms: 5, -99, 1.2 and pi (π = 3.14…).

Answer 2

Answer: Constant = 11

Concept:

In an algebraic expression, there are three main kinds of terms:

• Constants: an individual number
• Variable: the unknown value
• Coefficient: the number before a variable

If you are still confused, you may refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.

Solve:

Given expression: 3x + 11

As we know, the constant is defined as an individual number. Thus, as we can see from the given expression, 11 is the only number that is isolated and being an individual.
