Question

Bytelearn · Accepted Answer

Identify Coefficient n Term Option A: Identify the coefficient of the n term in option (A) 3n^(2)-4n-1. The coefficient of the n term in this expression is -4.Check Coefficient n Term Option A: Check if the coefficient of the n term in option (A) is -1. The coefficient of the n term in option (A) is -4, not -1.Identify Coefficient n Term Option B: Identify the coefficient of the n term in option (B) -n^(2)+5n+4. The coefficient of the n term in this expression is 5.Check Coefficient n Term Option B: Check if the coefficient of the n term in option (B) is -1. The coefficient of the n term in option (B) is 5, not -1.Identify Coefficient n Term Option C: Identify the coefficient of the n term in option (C) -2n^(2)-n+5. The coefficient of the n term in this expression is -1.Check Coefficient n Term Option C: Check if the coefficient of the n term in option (C) is -1. The coefficient of the n term in option (C) is indeed -1.Skip Checking Option D: Since we have found the expression with the coefficient of the n term as -1, there is no need to check option (D).
