Oneta writes an algebraic expression with three terms. The y-term has a coefficient of -3, and the x-term has a coefficient of 1. The expression does not have a constant term. Which expression could she have written?

Answer:

x - 3y + z

Step-by-step explanation:

Terms are just names for objects inside the equation -- anything that isn't an operation. A coefficient the is the number a given term (variable) is being mulitpled by. In this case, -3 for y, and 1 for. x. We can deduce from this the start of the expression (x has no coeff. bc of multiplicative identity)

x - 3y

We know we are missing one term, and we also know that the third term cannot be constant, so it must be another variable. In this case I have chosen Z, in theory it shouldn't really matter but z is the best variable name in this case.

Answer:

x-3y+6 was INCORRECT. Try D
