Terms, coefficients and factors are what make up an algebraic expression
The expression is given as:
(39.87 + 2(x-5))(1/2)
For an expression ab, the factors are a and b.
Hence, the factors of the expression (39.87 + 2(x-5))(1/2) are 39.87 + 2(x-5) and (1/2)
In (a), we have the first factor to be:
(39.87 + 2(x-5))
For an expression a + b, the terms are a and b
Hence, the terms in the first factor are 39.87 and 2(x-5)
In (b), we have the second term to be 2(x - 5)
For an expression 5a, the coefficient is 5
Hence, the coefficient in the second term of the first factor is 2
