Question

Select all the answers that could be a coefficient.

A. 0.65
B. 2.34
C. 5
D. 12.86
E. 8.5

Answer 1

Coefficients are numerical multipliers for variables in algebraic expressions, and hence, all values provided (0.65, 2.34, 5, 12.86, 8.5) can be coefficients.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the numbers listed in the question are coefficients, as a coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g., 4 in 4xy). Therefore, the answers to your question are:

• A. 0.65
• B. 2.34
• C. 5
• D. 12.86
• E. 8.5

Each of these values can serve as a multiplier for a variable in an algebraic expression.
