Answer:

The number that multiplies a variable in a term is called coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the algebraic expression shown below, terms are the elements that are separated by the operating symbols (plus or minus signs).

2x^2+3y+7xy+5

The above example has 4 terms 2x^2,\ 3y,\ 7xy, \text{and}\ 5

Variable:

The letters represent the variable in an algebraic expression. In the above algebraic expression <em>x</em> and <em>y </em>are the variables.

Coefficients:

The numerical part of the term is known as coefficient. In the above algebraic expression the coefficient of the first terms i.e. 2x^2 is 2 second term i.e 3y is 3 and third term i.e. 7xy is 7.

Hence, the number that multiplies a variable in a term is called coefficient.

<h3>A number that multiplies a variable in a term is known as a coefficient.</h3>

Given the term: 6x^3, we can identify three parts:

The coefficient, 6, is the constant that is being multiplied by the variable.

The variable, x, is a number with an unknown value, or with multiple potential values.

The exponent, 3, is the power with which the variable is being raised to.

As the image is magnified by a factor of 1: 7(1/4)
= 1: (29/4)
= 4/29.



The length of x must've been also increased by a factor of 4/ 29.

Using this,
The scaled value of x will be,

3(4/29)
= 12/29 units.
