Sample questions

1. Identify the coefficient of 'x' in the expression 5x + 3y.

   1. 3
   2. 5
   3. x
   4. y
   Show answer

   Answer: B. 5

   The coefficient of a variable is the number multiplied by it. In 5x + 3y, 5 is multiplied by x, so 5 is the coefficient of x.

2. What is the constant term in the expression 2x² + 5x - 8?

   1. 2
   2. 5
   3. -8
   4. x
   Show answer

   Answer: C. -8

   A constant term is a term without any variables. In this expression, -8 is the constant term.

3. Find the factors of the expression 15x³y²z.

   1. 15, x, x, x, y, y, z
   2. 15x³, y², z
   3. 15, x³, y², z
   4. 3, 5, x, x, x, y, y, z
   Show answer

   Answer: C. 15, x³, y², z

   The factors are the numbers and variables that multiply together to form the expression. It can also be written as 3 x 5 x x x x x y x y x z.

4. Determine the number of factors in the expression 24a⁴b²c³.

   1. 4
   2. 9
   3. 24
   4. 10
   Show answer

   Answer: D. 10

   The factors are 2, 2, 2, 3, a, a, a, a, b, b, c, c, c. Therefore, there are 10 factors.

5. In the expression (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b², identify the coefficient of 'ab'.

   1. 1
   2. 2
   3. a
   4. b
   Show answer

   Answer: B. 2

   The coefficient of 'ab' in the expansion of (a + b)² is 2.
