:
C
Perimeter of square = 40 units
4× side = 40
4×2x = 40
8x = 40
So, x = 5 units.
So, the length of each side is 5×2 = 10 units.

A
5ab=5×a×b
Given, a = 3, b = 2
5ab =5×3×2=30

The 'term' of an algebraic expression is either a single number or variable, or number and variables multiplied together.
When such terms are added, it forms an algebraic expression.
So, 2x and (−12) are terms of the algebraic expression (2x−12).
Here, we should notice that ‘minus’ is associated with the terms.
:
A
Given expression is
2x2+3y+5z2 +10p+6y+7x2
Group the like terms:
= (2x2+7x2) + (3y+6y) + 10p + 5z2
Solve groups:
= x2(2+7)+y(3+6)+5z2+10p
= 9x2+9y+5z2+10p

In the expression '12xy + 6', 'xy' is the variable part and it is multiplied to a constant part, which is called co-efficient of the variable.
In this case the coefficient of xy is 12.
:
A, B, and C
A constant is a number on its own which has a fixed value whose value does not change.
In the given options the values of 'xy', '4x+6y' and 'pxy' are not fixed and can change depending on which value 'x' and 'y' takes, but '7' is a fixed value.
So '7' is a constant and others are variables.
