i do not know what you mean by the word literal

unklerhaukus · Answer

i guess the literal co-efficient is $x$ in traxter's equation

anonymous · Answer

I think he means maybe when we have coefficients which are letters instead of numbers, so:
In the equation $ax^2+bx+c$, we have:
The coefficient of (x^2) is a.
The coefficient of x is b.
The constant is c.

unklerhaukus · Answer

so letters are literal coefficients/constants

anonymous · Answer

Yeh I guess so, it isn't all that clear from the question though.
