What are integer coefficients

1 Answer

0 votes
Coefficients are the numbers that come before a variable.

For example, 5x. The coefficient is 5. Since 5 is an integer, it is an integer coefficient.

That's all it is: a coefficient that's an integer.

An not-example would be the 1/2 in 1/2x. Since 1/2 isn't an integer, it does not count as a integer coefficient.

Hope this helps!
