The definition of Coefficient is the number before the variable, so in this case the 7 is in front of the variable. Overall, 7 is the coefficient of that equation.

The coefficient is the one the variable, in this case x, is multiplied by. The equation is 24 equals seven times x and therefore the coefficient is 7. Hope this helped!
