What is the leading coefficient in a polynomial?
It is the number (coefficient) that belongs to the variable of the highest degree in a polynomial.
Why is it important for the leading coefficient to be nonzero?
Idk
Where p is a factor of the leading coefficient of the polynomial and q is a factor of the constant term.?
Anywhere. Provided it is not zero, and number p can be the leading coefficient of a polynomial. And any number q can be the constant term.
What is the number in front of the term with the highest degree in a polynomial?
It is the Coefficient. It only refers to the given term that it is front. e.g. 2x^2 - 3x + 1 The '2' in front of 'x^2' only refers to 'x^2'. The '-3' in front of 'x' is the coefficient of '-3' The '1' is a constant.
