Understanding Algebraic Expressions and Terms

This video tutorial by Miss Fera introduces the basics of algebra, focusing on understanding algebraic expressions, terms, and their components such as coefficients, variables, and constants. It explains single and multiple terms, including binomials, trinomials, and polynomials, and emphasizes the importance of identifying like terms for addition and subtraction in algebraic expressions.
