Question

identify the terms in the expression below.
$4x^3 + 2x$
(2 points)
□ $4x^3$
□ 2
□ $2x$
□ $x$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of a term

In an algebraic expression, terms are the parts separated by addition or subtraction signs.

Step2: Analyze the expression \(4x^{3}+2x\)

The expression is separated into two parts by the plus sign: \(4x^{3}\) and \(2x\). The other options, 2 and \(x\), are not the complete terms as they are parts of \(2x\) and not the standalone terms separated by the operation in the given expression.

Answer:

A. \(4x^{3}\)
C. \(2x\)
