A coefficient is a number before a variable. For example, in 2x, the 2 would be the coefficient
Well, isn't that a happy little math problem! To find out what 2x plus 2 equals, you simply need to add 2 to whatever number x represents. It's like adding a couple of friendly little birds to your painting to make it even more beautiful!
To find the product of x squared and 2x squared, you multiply the coefficients (2 and 1) to get 2, and then add the exponents of x (2 and 2) to get x to the power of 4. Therefore, x squared times 2x squared is equal to 2x^4.
2x * 2x (2*2=4) therefore, 2x*2x equals 4x2.
In mathematics, an equation is a mathematical formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =. Example: 2x + 3 = 7 In this equation, 2x + 3 becomes included as one expression, and 7 is another expression. This equation declares that the two expressions need to be identical. To solve the equation for x, you'd do following steps: Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation the equation: 2x + 3 - 3 = 7 - 3 2x = 4 Divide both sides by 2: 2x/2 = 4/2 x = 2 Therefore, the solution to 2x + 3 = 7 is x = 2.
