Game: FOUR IN A ROW
Aim: To get four symbols in a row
Method:
Choose a square and click on it. Click on the correct answer to the question in the box that appears. If you are right the square is replaced by a tick. Continue until you have won 4 in a row...
6th grade / Algebra / Algebraic notation / Algebraic notation / Count terms in expressions
In algebra a "term" is any combination of variables, exponents and constants or coefficients upon which mathematical operations such as addition or multipliation can be performed. Examples of terms are:
5q 47c -15g 6y³ -cd⁻³
Terms are most often found grouped together into expressions. Expressions are groups of terms separated by mathematical operators. Examples of expressions are:
y + 5 3y² - x 2f x 3f⁻³ 4g³ ÷ 15h⁴
Terms in an expression are separated by mathematical operators such as plus or minus. To count terms, take the number of operators and add 1. Or count the things you know are terms based on our definition above.
5p² + 3q⁵ - 8
So in the expression above we have 3 terms ( and 2 mathematical operators ).
This topic is checking that you can distinguish what makes an element in an expression a term. By asking you to count terms, we are helping to clarify what is or isn't a term in an expression. Remember that constants (numbers without variables) are also terms if they are not coefficients of variables.
a³ + 3a³ 2 terms : a³ and 3a³
5p² + 3q⁵ - 8 3 terms : 5p² and 3q⁵ and 8
With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Count terms in expressions" from 6th grade / Algebra / Algebraic notation / Algebraic notation. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to count the number of terms in each of the given expressions.
The game will reinforce the math you have chosen to learn by getting you to match the question to the correct answer.
