9. What is the coefficient of y^2? in the expansion of (x + y)^2??

The coefficient of y² will be 1, which we can see when we expand the expression:

(x + y)²

= (x +y)(x + y)

= x² + xy + xy + y²

= x² + 2xy + y²

abde or 1,2,4, 5 is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
