A worksheet lists six terms: a^2, 2a^2, 3a, 4a, 5, 6. The terms are sorted into groups of like terms, and then each group is added. How many separate (combined) terms appear in the final simplified expression?

Question

Accepted Answer

3. Groups: a^2-terms (a^2 + 2a^2 = 3a^2), a-terms (3a + 4a = 7a), constants (5 + 6 = 11). That is 3 combined terms: 3a^2 + 7a + 11.

A worksheet lists six terms: $a^{2}, 2 a^{2}, 3 a, 4 a$ , 5, 6.
