Example Question #11 : Seeing Structure In Expressions
What is the order of the expression?
To find the order of the expression, first define what the order of an expression represents.
In a general example,
represents the coefficient of the term and represents the degree or order of the expression.
When there are more than one term in an expression such as,
the order of that expression is the highest degree on a given term.
In mathematical terms,
therefore the order of the expression is four.
Looking at the specific expression in question the following is seen.
Therefore, the order of the expression is five.
Example Question #12 : Seeing Structure In Expressions
What is the coefficient on the term?
To find the coefficient on the term, first define what the coefficient of an expression represents.
In a general example,
represents the coefficient of the term and represents the degree or order of the expression.
For the particular expression in this question,
the term is .
Therefore the value or coefficient is,
Example Question #13 : Seeing Structure In Expressions
Rewrite the following expression.
To rewrite the expression identify common factors that exist in both terms.
First identify the different terms.
Identify the factors of the terms.
Write a new, equivalent expression by factoring out a common term.
Example Question #14 : Seeing Structure In Expressions
Rewrite the following expression:
To rewrite the expression, first identify and interpret the individual parts.
Identify the various terms in the expression.
Now, recall the general form for exponents.
From there, expand the second term as follows.
From here combine the first term with the expanded second term to result in the final solution.
