Question

Simplify the expression leave expression in exact form with coefficient a and b so we have a✔️b.

Answer 1

coefficient of a = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:
`\text{The expression: 2}\sqrt[]{x^2y}`

Simplifying:

`\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{x^2}\text{ = x} \\ 2\sqrt[]{x^2* y}\text{ = 2x}\sqrt[]{y} \end{gathered}`

Since we are told the coefficient of a can be the product of a number and variable:

`\begin{gathered} 2x\sqrt[]{y}\text{ is in the form a}\sqrt[]{b} \\ a\text{ = 2x},\text{ b = y} \\ 2\text{ = number, x = variable} \\ 2x\text{ = product of number and variable} \\ \text{coefficient of }a\text{ = 2x} \end{gathered}`
