Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Algebraic expression= $5xy+9yz+3zx+5x-4y$

To find:

Number of terms in the expression

Solution:

To find the number of terms in an expression we look over the signs.

Each term before and after the mathematical sign will be counted.

For example, here in the expression $5xy+9yz+3zx+5x-4y$

The term before the first addition sign which is $5xy$ will be counted as the first term, similarly,  the term before the second addition sign $9yz$ will be the second term. Yes, the term $5x,-4y$ will be counted as two different terms.

The third term, fourth, and fifth terms will be $3zx,5x , -4y$
