Sagot :

The leading coefficient of a polynomial is the coefficient of the term with the highest power(or degree).

In our case,

The polynomial is

[tex]2x^2+x^3-7x+1[/tex]

Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 3.

And the term with the highest power is

[tex]x^3[/tex]

and its coefficient is 1.

Hence, the leading coefficient is 1
