Answers
Answer:
algebra
is the part of mathematics in which letters and other general symbols are used to represent numbers and quantities in formulae and equations.
coefficient
a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g. 4 in 4x y).
Types of Algebraic expression:
There are 3 mains types of algebraic expressions which include:
Monomial Expression
Binomial Expression
Polynomial Expression
Monomial Expression
An algebraic expression which is having only one term is known as a monomial.
Examples of monomial expression include 3x4, 3xy, etc.
Binomial Expression
A binomial expression is an algebraic expression which is having two unlikely terms.
Examples of binomial include 5xy + 8, xyz + x3, etc.
Polynomial Expression
In general, an expression with more than one terms with non-negative integral exponents of a variable is known as a polynomial.
Examples of polynomial expression include ab + bc + ca, etc.
Other Types of Expression:
Apart from monomial, binomial and polynomial types of expressions, alebraic expression can also be classsified into two additional types which are:
Numeric Expression
Variable Expression
Numeric Expression:
A numeric expression consists of numbers and operations, but never include any variable. Some of the examples of numeric expressions are 10+5, 15÷2, etc.
Variable Expression:
A variable expression is an expression which contains variables along with numbers and operation to define an expression. A few examples of a variable expression include 4x+y, 5ab + 33, etc.
