Question

select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
look at this expression, and complete the statements.
(3x + 2(x + 2) + 4)

in the first term, 3 is choose an answer.
in the second term, ((x + 2)) is choose an answer.
in the last term, 4 is choose an answer.

Explanation:

Identify the parts of the expression

The given algebraic expression is:

$$ 3x + 2(x + 2) + 4 $$

It consists of three terms separated by addition operators:

• First term: \(3x\)
• Second term: \(2(x + 2)\)
• Last term: \(4\)

Analyze each specified component

• In the first term \(3x\), the number \(3\) is multiplied by the variable \(x\), making \(3\) a coefficient.
• In the second term \(2(x + 2)\), the expression \((x + 2)\) is multiplied by \(2\), making \((x + 2)\) a factor.
• In the last term \(4\), the number stands alone without any variables, making \(4\) a constant.
