Unreferenced date December 2009 In mathematics , a constant term is a term mathematics term in an Expression mathematics algebraic expression that does not contain any Variable mathematics variables , and therefore has constant function constant value. For example, in the quadratic polynomial math x 2 2x 3, math the 3 is a constant term. After like terms are combined, an algebraic expression will have at most one constant term. Thus, it is common to speak of the quadratic polynomial math ax 2 bx c, math where x is the variable, and has a constant term of c . If c 0, then the constant term will not actually appear when the quadratic is written. Any polynomial written in standard form has a unique constant term, which can be considered the coefficient of x sup 0 sup . In particular, the constant term is always the lowest Degree of a polynomial degree term of the polynomial. This also applies to multivariate polynomials. For example, the polynomial math x 2 2xy y 2 2x 2y 4 math has a constant term of &minus 4, which can be considered the coefficient of x sup 0 sup y sup 0 sup . For any polynomial, the constant term can be obtained by substituting in 0 for all of the variables. The concept can be extended to power series and other types of series in the power series math a 0 a 1 x a 2 x 2 a 3 x 3 cdots, math a sub 0 sub is the constant term. In general a constant term is one that does not involve any variables at all. However in expressions that involve terms with other types of factors than constants and powers of variables, the notion of constant term cannot be used in this sense, since that would lead to calling 4 the constant term of math x 3 2 4 math , whereas substituting 0 for x in this polynomial makes it evaluate to 13.

A term sheet is a bullet point document outlining the material terms and conditions of a business agreement. After a Term Sheet has been executed , it guides legal counsel in the preparation of a proposed final agreement . It then guides, but is not necessarily binding, as the signatories negotiate, usually with legal counsel, the final terms of their agreement. A term sheet implies the terms of a business transaction, as proposed by a party. It may be either binding or non binding. Term sheets are very similar to letter of intent letters of intent LOI in that they are both preliminary, mostly non binding documents meant to record two or more parties intentions to enter into a future agreement based on specified but incomplete or preliminary terms. The difference between the two is slight and mostly a matter of style an LOI is typically written in letter form and focuses on the parties intentions a term sheet skips most of the formalities and lists deal terms in bullet point or similar format. There is an implication that an LOI only refers to the final form. A term sheet may be a proposal, not an agreed to document.
