In a ploynomial or differential equation or really any formula or equation with variables in it, the coefficients are the terms "in front of" the variable or multiplied the variables. Each variable generally has its own coefficient. If a coefficient is constant (ie just a number) then it is a constant coefficient. eg Consider the polynomial , 3x2+9yx+6 in terms of x. It has one constant coefficient (3), one variable coefficient (9y) and one constant (6).

What is the constant for 5x plus 9?
9 is the constant. 5 is the coefficient of the variable term. X is the variable term.
What is the term coefficient and constant of 7h plus 3?
1-h
A number that multiplies a variable is called?
A constant. * * * * * The expected answer is more likely to be "coefficient".
What does the word coefficient mean in math?
if there is something like 4x^2, then the 4 is the coefficient. It is the coefficient of the X. The squared part is the exponent. If something is just 2x, then the 2 is the exponent. It is the known number, the constant that is multiplied times the X.
A trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5?
8
Is there a constant in the problem of 46n?
the coefficient is 46 and the constant is 0
What is the coefficient in 6n 3?
6 is the coefficient, n is the variable, 3 is the constant
What is the coefficient 6n 3?
6 is the coefficient, n is the variable, 3 is the constant
Where possible identify the variable numerical coefficient and constant in each expression 7a-8?
15
What the constant factor of a term of polynomial?
coefficient
When a constant is joined to variable it is called a?
coefficient
Explain the difference between a constant and a coefficient?
A constant is just a number that remains same throughout, while a coefficient is one which is followed by one or more variables.
Constant that depends on the natures of the two surfaces in contact?
This constant is mu; the coefficient of friction.
What is the spring constant in design of pile?
it is a soil constant (coefficient of sub grade reaction)
What does a coefficient represent?
It depends on the equation and the coefficient. Coefficients can be constant (Boltzmann constant, Avogadro's number) but they can also be variable (Reynolds number). The coefficient of gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2 in metric units on Earth.
What is the constant in 5a plus 2?
2. Although, technically, the coefficient, 5, is also a constant.
Is pi a coefficient?
Yes--in that it is a constant that typically precedes a variable.
