Could someone help clarify the meaning of this pre-calculus question on Binomial Expansion?

64 Views Asked by At

I'm taking an online pre-calculus course and I'm currently working on a unit about Binomial expansion.

I've come across an oddly worded (at least to me) question on coefficients:

"What coefficient will yield the coefficient of the term $x^{10}+y^5$ in the expansion of $(x+y)^{15}$?"

I thought it just meant what was the coefficient of the term in the expansion, so I tried entering $$3003 x^{10} y^5$$ but it wouldn't accept it as an answer. Could someone clarify what exactly this question is asking?
