2a+3a=5a
It is not an equation but an algebraic expression that can be simplified to: 12b-5a
5
if you want to simplify an equation its really simple ex: 3a+5a+2d+2g+65a+d+14g you have to combine like terms so 3a+5a+65a which is 73a then the D's 2d+d NOTE: a constant(letter) by it self makes the number 1 and what ever letter it is so d=1d so that's 3d now for the G's 14g+2g=16g and since there is nothing left to combine you have to but it all together so the answer would be 73a+3d+16g. hope that this helped
The coefficient is the number in front of the variable a, or 5.
It is the 5 in 5a+2

a, whatever the value is, would be the constant.
It is an expression because it does not contain an equality sign.
2a + 3a = 5a
The product of 5a and 3b is obtained by multiplying the coefficients (5 and 3) together and the variables (a and b) together. This results in 15ab. The product of 5a and 3b simplifies to 15ab in algebraic terms.
The coefficient is the number in front of the variable a, or 5.
An algebraic letter. e/g 5a 'a' is a non numeric constant. Remember in algebraic , when a letter is given , it means that the value of the letter is a constant, but the value is unknown .
Since they are like terms, 5a*3a=15a. Find out what "a" is equal to and multiply it by 15. Then, and only then, will you get your answer.
