@GabeBae

Parth (parthkohli):

I think the term that best describes two is... two.

Parth (parthkohli):

So that's what I'd call "2".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm just not familiar with the terms they are using. My Class is complicated

Nnesha (nnesha):

coefficient: number at front of the variable constant: number without any variable

OpenStudy (gabebae):

oh my bad

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So a constant

Nnesha (nnesha):

in this equation \[\rm 2x^2+3x+4\] 2 and 3 are coefficients 2= leading coefficient and 4 is constant variable is x

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

makes sense, so 2 is a constant, because of no variable.

Nnesha (nnesha):

ye

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you
