👉 In mathematics, an undetermined coefficient is a term used to describe a situation where a polynomial equation has no known or specified solution. This can occur in algebraic equations or transcendental equations. An example of an undetermined coefficient would be a polynomial equation with a variable raised to the power that does not have any specific value. For instance, consider the equation: x^2 + 3x - 4 This equation has no known solutions for x because it is defined by its general form
