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.
