A term is a fundamental component of an algebraic expression, distinguished by being separated by plus or minus signs.
The coefficient refers to the numerical factor of a term, which appears before the variable, indicating how many units of the variable are present.
A constant is a term that is solely a number and does not include any variables, representing fixed value.
A variable is a symbolic representation, typically a letter, that can stand in for an unknown or changeable number in expressions.
An expression is a mathematical formulation that includes a mix of variables, constants, and mathematical operations, forming a complete mathematical statement.
