Exercise 14 Page 206

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

Terms: 7h and 3
Coefficients: 7
Constants: 3

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. 7h + 3

We can see that the expression has two terms, 7h and 3. 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. 7h+ 3 The expression has one coefficient, which is 7, and a constant, which is 3. Let's organize this information in a table.

Terms Coefficients Constants
7h and 3 7 3
