Suppose our expression is

Β Β Β  2π‘₯ βˆ’ 3

Β 

Here we consider terms other than constant

Β  Β 

Β 

Number multiplied to the variable is the coefficient

Here, 2 is the coefficient of 2x

Β 

For 4x 3 βˆ’ 9xyz

Coefficient of a Term - Part 2

Β 

For 25x + y

Coefficient of a Term - Part 3

Β 

For 15π‘₯y βˆ’ 25y + 18

Coefficient of a Term - Part 4

Transcript

For 4x3 βˆ’ 9xyz 4π‘₯3 = 4 Γ— π‘₯3 So 4 is the coefficient of π‘₯3 βˆ’9xyz = –9 Γ— xyz So, βˆ’9 is the coefficient of xyz For 25x + y 25x = 25 Γ— π‘₯ So, 25 is the coefficient of π‘₯ y = 1 Γ— y So, 1 is the coefficient of y For 15π‘₯y βˆ’ 25y + 18 15π‘₯y = 15 Γ— π‘₯ Γ— y So 15 is the coefficient of xy βˆ’25y = βˆ’25 Γ— y So, βˆ’25 is the Coefficient of y
