Statements to confirm

A. The variable 2 is being multiplied by (l + w)

B. There are two variables in the expression l and w.

C. (l + w) represents the product of two terms: l and w.

D. The expression is the quotient of two factors: 2 and (l + w).

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The variable 2 is being multiplied by (l + w).

FALSE because "2" isn't a variable.

B. There are two variables in the expression l and w.

TRUE because variables are any letters. In this case, the letters are w and l.

C. (l + w) represents the product of two terms: l and w.

FALSE because product means multiplication when we are adding.

D. The expression is the quotient of two factors: 2 and (l + w).

FALSE quotient means divide when we are multiplying.

Best of Luck!
