Verified answer
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.

The number in front of the term with the highest degree in a polynomial is called the leading coefficient. The leading coefficient determines the behavior of the polynomial as the variable's value increases or decreases. It also affects the shape of the graph of the polynomial.
For example, in the polynomial 3x^4 - 2x^3 + 5x^2 + 7x - 1, the term with the highest degree is 3x^4. In this case, the leading coefficient is 3.

The number in front of the term with the highest degree in a polynomial is called the leading coefficient. The leading coefficient determines the behavior of the polynomial as the input values increase or decrease. It also helps in identifying important properties of the polynomial, such as its end behavior and whether the polynomial is positive or negative for large input values.

What are facts about coefficient in math terms?
Yes!The word "coefficient" usually refers to the number part of a term.Some examples:The coefficient in 7x is 7.The coefficient in -2y4z3 is -2.The coefficient in b2c3d4 is 1 (because you can think of there being a '1' in front)In the polynomial x3 + 4x2y - 5xy2 + 6y3, the coefficient of xy2 is -5.Technically, you could say that in the term 27fg4, 27 is the numerical coefficient, and fg4 is the literal coefficient.
