Question

Identify the coefficient of the term with the power of 2: 4y+3y2 + y + 2

Answer 1

The coefficient of the term  with the power of 2:  4y+3y^2 + y + 2 is equal to 3

Solution:

Given, expression is $4 y+3 y^{2}+y+2$

It can be simplified and written as $3 y^{2}+(4 y+y)+2 \rightarrow 3 y^{2}+5 y+2$

We have to find the coefficient of the term with the power of 2.

Now, we know that, coefficient is factor by which the term is being multiplied with.

So, now, let us find the term with power 2 and then we can find by which factor it is being multiplied.

If we observe, $y^2$ is the term with power 2.

And, it is being multiplied by 3.

Hence, the coefficient of term with power 2 is 3.
