Solution:-

Expressions are defined as numbers, symbols and operators (such as +. – , × and ÷) grouped together that show the value of something.

In algebra, a term is either a single number or variable or numbers and variables multiplied together. Terms are separated by + or – signs or sometimes by division.

Factors are defined as numbers we can multiply together to get another number.

(ix) 0.1 y + 0.01 y2

Solution:-

Expressions are defined as numbers, symbols and operators (such as +. – , × and ÷) grouped together that show the value of something.

In algebra, a term is either a single number or variable or numbers and variables multiplied together. Terms are separated by + or – signs or sometimes by division.

A coefficient is a number used to multiply a variable (2x means 2 times x, so 2 is a coefficient). Variables on their own (without a number next to them) actually have a coefficient of 1 (x is really 1x).
