@SolomonZelman can you help me please?

solomonzelman · Answer

I wouldn't think any of them are greater, it depends on the value of the variable.

anonymous · Answer

well thats were im kind of getting confused

solomonzelman · Answer

variableS actually (not just 1 variable)

solomonzelman · Answer

maybe it is asking you to order them by which has less terms in it to most number of terms.

anonymous · Answer

even so I still don't know how to solve them.

solomonzelman · Answer

The 1st option has 2 terms
the 2nd has 3 terms
the 3rd has 4 terms
the 4th has 1 term

so the order of options would be
 D, A, B, C       from the one that has the least amount of tears to the one that has the biggest number of terms.
