Problem:
Which of the following is NOT TRUE about term?
Answer:
a. -6y is a term
b. There are three terms in x + 2y-9
c. In x - 5, x is the literal coefficient while 5 is the constant.
d. In 4x, 4 is the literal coefficient while x is the numerical coefficient.
Explanation:
✓Term consists of a number which is the numerical coefficient and/or a variable which is the literal coefficient. Therefore, -6y is a term.
✓In letter b, there are three terms (trinomial), x, 2y and 9 in which they are separated by addition and/or subtraction sign.
✓In letter c and d, they contradict each other. A variable is the literal coefficient while a number is the numerical coefficient. Obviously, letter C is correct.
✓Therefore, letter d is the answer.
