Which statement about coefficient (0) is correct?
Advertisement
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(0\)
Multiplying any variable or number by 0 gives 0. Hence, \(0x=0\), so \(0\) is the correct option. Although \(x^0=1\) for \(x\ne 0\), it is not equal to \(0x\). Exam tip: a term with coefficient 0 contributes nothing to the value of an expression.
