Exercise 1 Page 202

Terms are separated by + or - signs. Coefficients are numbers that are multiplied by variables. Constants are numbers with no variable factors.

Terms: 12 and 10c
Coefficients: 10
Constants: 12

Practice makes perfect

An algebraic expression is a combination of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations. Terms are separated by + or - signs. With this information in mind, let's identify the terms in the given expression.

12 + 10c We can see that the expression has two terms, 12 and 10c. Next, we will identify the coefficients and constants. A coefficient is a number that is multiplied by a variable or variables. A constant is a number with no variable factors. 12+ 10c The expression has one coefficient, which is 10, and a constant, which is 12. Let's organize this information in a table.

Terms	Coefficients	Constants
12 and 10c	10	12
