Which of the following best describes the expression 3x + 2y + 8z?

The sum of three products; there are three terms

Step-by-step explanation:

Which of the following best describes the expression 3x + 2y + 8z?

The product of three sums; there are three terms

The sum of three products; there are three terms

The product of three sums; there are six terms

The sum of three products; there are six terms.

As you can see from the options, there is only one that is correct, since the terms are adding up, each term is 3x, 2y, and 8z, these are the three terms that we can find in the expression, and since they are products of a multiplication, they are the sum of three products, and there are only three terms, remember that the word product in math means the result of a multiplication, since 3 is multiplying x 2 is multiplying y and 8 is multiplying z we have three multiplications, or 3 products, and we are adding them up, so the correct option would be The sum of three products; there are three terms.

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
