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.

Help i will give brainliest
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = 56 cm²

                   πr² = 56

                 3.14r² = 56

                         r²=56/3.14

                        r²= 17.83

                        r = √17.83

                        r = 4.22 cm

The diameter of the circle  = diagonal of the square

Diagonal of the square = 2 * 4.22 = 8.44 cm

x² + x² = 8.44²

2x² = 71.2336

  x² = 71.2336/2

  x² = 35.6168

x = 5.967 cm

Find the area of each sector. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. ​
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Area of sector = 102.6 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of circle = 14 ft

Angle θ = 60°

Find:

Area of sector

Computation:

Area of sector = [θ/360]πr²

Area of sector = [60/360](22/7)(14)²

Area of sector = [1/6][22/7][196]

Area of sector = 102.6 feet squared

2. The number of atoms of a particular chemical element is modelled by
____ [38]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 600

  b) see below

  c) 1.26 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The value of y when x=0 is the coefficient of the exponential term:

  y = 600·3^(-0) = 600·1 = 600

There were 600 atoms to start.

__

b) see attached for a graph

__

c) The graph shows 150 atoms at t = 1.26, about 1.26 hours after the start of time counting.

If you want to find that value algebraically, substitute for y and solve for x. Logarithms are involved.

  150 = 600·3^(-x)

  150/600 = 3^(-x)

  log(1/4) = -x·log(3)

  x = -log(1/4)/log(3) = log(4)/log(3) ≈ 1.2618595

After about 1.26 hours, there were 150 atoms.
