Question

Kayla and Paul were asked to identify the constant in the expression 25 + 6y + 7x. Kayla claims the constant is 25 while Paul claims it is 6 and 7. Who is correct and WHY?

Answer 1

Answer: Kayla is right

Step-by-step explanation: A number that cannot change its value. In the expression 2x+4y−9 , the term 9 is a constant. Like Terms: Terms that contain the same variables such as 2m , 6m or 3xy and 7xy. So any number that has a letter next to it can not be the constant in the expression. Hope this helps:)
