Example:x^2+5x+6=0 Coefficient A is how many "x"es there are in x^2. In the example there is only one:x (note: you don't say "1x" you can just have x by itself). Coefficient B is how many "x"es there are in the "+x". In the example there is "5x"es Coefficient C is the 6 in the example (If you don't see a coefficient C in a problem, then it's + 0).
