Question

Identify the coefficient of second term in the expression:3x^2 + 7y^3 + 2x + 9y -5y^2.can someone please explain what coefficient of second means and how to solve this equation please !

Answer 1

So the coefficient are the numbers when you multiply a number by a varriable

for example the first part of this equation starts with 3x

3 is the number and x is the viable

that means that the first coefficient in this problem is 3

so moving forward the second coeffifient would be 7 since 7y comes after the first coefficient
