A.SOLVING THE OPERATION OF ALGEBRAIC
1.
The definition of coefficient, variable, constant and terms
.
Coefficient
is a multiplying factors.Thus in 3
x
, 3 is the coefficient of
x
in -4
pq
, -4
q
is the coefficient of
q
Variable
is a quantity whose value changes.
Constant
is a quantity whose value constant.
Terms
are parts of the expressions which are connected by plus or minus.Example : In Algebraic expression :
6 bananas + 3 apples – 2 bananas – 5 apples – 5
We can write : 6
b
– 3
a
– 2
b
– 5
a
- 5 Note:6 is coefficient of b,3 is coefficient of a,-2 is coefficient of ba and b is variables5 is constant6b and -2b are
like terms
6b and - 3a are
unlike terms
