Question 4
Write the coefficient of $x^{2}$ in each of the following:

(i) $\frac{π}{6} x + x^{2} - 1$

(ii) $3 x - 5$

(iii) $(x - 1) (3 x - 4)$

(iv) $(2 x - 5) (2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1)$

Solution

(i) The coefficient of $x^{2}$ in $\frac{π}{6} x + x^{2} - 1$ is 1.

(ii) The coefficient of $x^{2}$ in 3x- 5 is 0.

(iii) Let $p (x) = (x - 1) (3 x - 4) = 3 x^{2} - 4 x - 3 x + 4 = 3 x^{2} - 7 x + 4$

Hence, the coefficient of $x^{2}$ in p(x) is 3.

(iv) $L e t p (x) = (2 x - 5) (2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1) = 2 x (2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1) - 5 (2 x^{2} - 3 x + 1) = 4 x^{3} - 6 x^{2} + 2 x - 10 x^{2} + 15 x - 5 = 4 x^{3} - 16 x^{2} + 17 x - 5$
Hence, the coefficient of $x^{2}$ in p(x) is -16.
