(c) \(y – y^3\)
Steps:
Term \(= y\) and Factor \(= 1;\) Term \(= y^3\) and Factor \(= –1\)
(d) \(5xy^2 + 7x^2y\)
Steps:
Term \(= xy^2\) and Factor \(= 5;\) Term \(= x^2y\) and Factor \(= 7\)
(e) \(– ab + 2b^2 – 3a^2\)
Steps:
Term \(= ab\) and Factor \(= –1; \)Term \(= b^2\) and Factor \(= 2;\) Term \(a^2\) and Factor \(= –3\)
(ii) Identify terms and factors in the expressions given below:
(f) \(–4x + 5\) (b) \(–4x + 5y\) (c) \(5y + 3y^2\)
(g) \(xy + 2x^2y^2\) (e) \(pq + q\) (f) \(1.2 ab – 2.4 b + 3.6 a\)
