Which of the following are terms in this expression? Select all that apply.

w+8y+3
W
10w
8w
2

1 answer

In the expression \( w + 8y + 3 \), the terms are the individual parts separated by plus or minus signs.

The terms in the expression are:

  • \( w \)
  • \( 8y \)
  • \( 3 \)

Now, let's analyze the options you provided:

  1. W - This is not a term in the expression \( w + 8y + 3 \) because it is a different case (uppercase vs lowercase).
  2. 10w - This is not a term in the expression because it does not match any of the terms.
  3. 8w - This is not a term in the expression either.
  4. 2 - This is not a term in the expression; the constant term is 3, not 2.

Thus, none of the options listed (W, 10w, 8w, or 2) are terms in the expression \( w + 8y + 3 \).
