Coefficient
01
a numerical or constant factor that multiplies a variable in an algebraic term
Example
In the expression −x, the implicit coefficient is -1.
In the system of equations, the coefficients of the variables must be aligned to use matrix methods.
When combining like terms in 3p+2p, the coefficients are added to get 5p.
The entries in the augmented matrix correspond to the coefficients of the variables and the constants in the system of equations.
In the Fourier series expansion of a function, the period plays a fundamental role in determining the coefficients of the trigonometric terms.
