4x - 7 = 5 .

label the parts of the equation.

constant. variable. coefficient. operator

1 answer

In the equation \(4x - 7 = 5\), we can label the parts as follows:

  1. Variable: \(x\)

    • This represents an unknown value.

  2. Coefficient: \(4\)

    • This is the number that multiplies the variable \(x\).

  3. Constant: \(-7\) and \(5\)

    • \(-7\) is a constant on the left side of the equation.
    • \(5\) is a constant on the right side of the equation.

  4. Operator: \(-\) and \(=\)

    • The \(-\) is the subtraction operator between \(4x\) and \(-7\).
    • The \(=\) is the equality operator, indicating that the left side of the equation is equal to the right side.

So the labeled parts are:

  • Variable: \(x\)
  • Coefficient: \(4\)
  • Constants: \(-7\) (left side), \(5\) (right side)
  • Operators: \(-\) and \(=\)
