Question

What is the coefficient of the variable in the expression 4 − 3x − 7 + 6?

Answer 1

the coefficient of the variable in the expression 4-3x-7+6 is 3

Answer 2

the coefficient of the variable in the given expression is, -3

Explanation:

Coefficient states that a number which is used to multiply a variable.

For example:

4y

here, y is the variable and 4 is the coefficient.

As per the statement:

Given the expression:

`4-3x-7+6`

Here, x is the variable

By definition of coefficient, we have;

⇒-3 is the coefficient

Therefore, the coefficient of the variable in the given expression is, -3
