Hello,
\n" ); document.write( "Good problem so you can understand the words of Algebra.
\n" ); document.write( "Terms are each one for example:
\n" ); document.write( "x+5-3x-1
\n" ); document.write( "x is a term and 5 and -3x and -1
\n" ); document.write( "Like terms are:
\n" ); document.write( "x and -3x
\n" ); document.write( "5 and -1
\n" ); document.write( "Coefficients are:
\n" ); document.write( "-3 and actually there is a 1 in front of the x but these are usually not shown.
\n" ); document.write( "Constant terms are:
\n" ); document.write( "5 and -1
\n" ); document.write( "(Hint: Understanding the words is the first step to pulling off good grades in any subject)
