  2. Coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient

    A constant coefficient, also known as constant term or simply constant, is a quantity either implicitly attached to the zeroth power of a variable or not attached to other variables in an expression; for example, the constant coefficients of the expressions above are the number 3 and the parameter c, involved in 3=c ⋅ x 0.

  3. List of mathematical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_constants

    A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

  4. Constant (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_(mathematics)

    [1] [2] The terms mathematical constant or physical constant are sometimes used to distinguish this meaning. [3] A function whose value remains unchanged (i.e., a constant function). [4] Such a constant is commonly represented by a variable which does not depend on the main variable(s) in question.

  5. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    The coefficient b, often denoted a 0 is called the constant term (sometimes the absolute term in old books [4] [5]). Depending on the context, the term coefficient can be reserved for the a i with i > 0. When dealing with = variables, it is common to use , and instead of indexed variables.

  6. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    A term with no indeterminates and a polynomial with no indeterminates are called, respectively, a constant term and a constant polynomial. [b] The degree of a constant term and of a nonzero constant polynomial is 0. The degree of the zero polynomial 0 (which has no terms at all) is generally treated as not defined (but see below).

  7. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

    The unique pair of values a, b satisfying the first two equations is (a, b) = (1, 1); since these values also satisfy the third equation, there do in fact exist a, b such that a times the original first equation plus b times the original second equation equals the original third equation; we conclude that the third equation is linearly ...

  8. Constant term - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_term

    If the constant term is 0, then it will conventionally be omitted when the quadratic is written out. Any polynomial written in standard form has a unique constant term, which can be considered a coefficient of . In particular, the constant term will always be the lowest degree term of the polynomial. This also applies to multivariate polynomials.

  9. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expression_(mathematics)

    A term is a constant or the product of a constant and one or more variables. Some examples include ,,, The constant of the product is called the coefficient. Terms that are either constants or have the same variables raised to the same powers are called like terms. If there are like terms in an expression, one can simplify the expression by ...
