Question

How may terms are in `5x^ { 4} + 6x ^ { 3} - 2x + 7`?

Answer 1

4 terms

Explanation:

Each term is a mathematical expression. The exponents or variables in each term makes it separate. For example, `x^4` is not the same as `x^3`, because they cannot be combined, like `x` and `x` to form `2x`.

`5x^4`
`6x^3`
`-2x`
`7`

Each are their own term because they cannot be combined into like terms.
