Solution

The correct option is A x, 2
In Algebra, a constant is a number on its own, or sometimes a letter such as a, b or c to stand for a fixed number.

A Variable is a symbol for a number we don't know yet.

Symbols and letters which are expressed in a mathematical expression are variables like a,b,c,d,p,q,r,s,x,y ...etc

In the above expression, constant is 2 as it is a number.
and variable is x as it is a letter.
