Question

Identify the terms and like terms in the expression.

$7+4p-5+p+2q$

Answer 1

Step 1: Rewrite as a sum of terms:

$7+4p+(-5)+p+2q$

Terms: $\left(7\right),\left(4p\right),(-5),\left(p\right),\left(2q\right)$

Like Terms : $$\begin{gathered} \left(4p\right)and\left(p\right) \\ \left(7\right)and(-5) \end{gathered}$$

Hence, $\left(7\right),\left(4p\right),(-5),\left(p\right),\left(2q\right)$ are terms and

Like Terms : $$\begin{gathered} \left(4p\right)and\left(p\right) \\ \left(7\right)and(-5) \end{gathered}$$
