Each month, Allison gets a $15 allowance and earns $100 working at the theater. She uses the expression 15x + 100y to keep track of her earnings. Part A: Identify the variables and coefficients in the expression. (3 points) Part B: How many terms are in the expression, what are they, and how do you know? (4 points) Part C: Which term in the expression shows the total earned from her allowance? (3 points) (10 points)
i dont know any of this-
its summer shool we shearch up the awnsers...
In part A, just know that the coefficients are the numbers 'attached' to the left of the variable (which are the letters). For part B, terms are basically a part of an expression. For example, the expression 17x + 76y has 2 two terms if you count it. Lastly, in part C, a big hint would be knowing what Allison's allowance is and which term relates to that. Hopefully this will guide you in the right direction.
could u explain part a more
@echofire
For which part?
In part A, just know that the coefficients are the numbers 'attached' to the left of the variable (which are the letters).
woould that be my answer ??
Coefficients are constants, regular numbers, and variables are letters.
also the first time i did this two min ago3 questins my teacher gave me a 44 percent
so could iput for part a the coefficients are the numbers 'attached' to the left of the variable
You need to say what exactly are the coefficients. Let's say you have y = 2x, the coefficients are 1 and 2, and the variables are x and y.
15 and 100?
Would that be the coefficients or variables?
doefficients
c* lol
Correct!
variables aint numbers
the coefficients are 15 and 100 attached to the left of the variable that are x and y
Yes, you got it.
that would work for part a
now part b
For part B, terms are basically a part of an expression. the expression 15x + 100y has 2 two terms if you count it.
Yes, you counted correctly.
re worded to my question
o yea part b is ez
i knew that one
Think you got the last one?
lemme check
Lastly, in part C, a big hint would be knowing what Allison's allowance is and which term relates to that. we know she gets 15x and 100y thats all they gave us
i dont get this could u break it down
Remember, her allowance is $15 so see which term relates to those $15.
15 can relate with 15
x and y an 100
cant
You think it is the term with the 15?
i dont know ?!?!!?!
$15 and then you have 15x, they seem related.
sure do almost like they are the same dam number
That is right.
Lastly, in part C, Allison's allowance is 15$ and which term relates to. we know she gets 15x and 100y thats all they gave us
but they gave us the fact she gets 100$ and 15$
$15 for allowance and $100 from working.
