Question

Write the coefficient of $x^{2}$ in each of the following:
$(x - 1) (3 x - 4)$

Open in App

Solution

Finding the coefficient:
A coefficient is a multiplicative factor in terms of a polynomial.
$(x - 1) (3 x - 4) = 3 x^{2} - 7 x + 4$
The coefficient of $x^{2}$ in the given polynomial is $3$ .
Hence, the coefficients of $x^{2}$ in the given polynomials is $3$ .
