What are the terms in the expression 5+6y

Question

need to know difference between term, coeffiietnt, number of terms and constant

Answer 1

The expression 5+ 6y is a polynomial

The terms are 5 and 6y, therefore there are two terms.

The coefficients are 5 and 6, which are the numbers that multiply the variable in each term. Note that 5 = 5y⁰ . The polynomial can be written as 6y¹ + 5y⁰.

The constant is 5, which is the term that don't depend on the value of the variable.

Answer 2

Term and Monomial can be thought of as synonyms. A term is a product of a numerical number and a variable, or just a number. A Coefficient is a number or variable that is being multiplied. Illustrations follow: 6, -3*x, 1/2*a*b are terms. -3, x, 1/2, a, b are coefficients. A negative 3 is a coefficient of x. A Constant is a numerical number.
