Answer:

Explanation:

The coefficient of a variable is always the number before the variable, if there is no number before a variable the coefficient is always 1.

In this case, since the subtraction sign is before the variable, you will need to make the variable positive by making the coefficient of variable y, -1.

In short terms, your answer is -1. :)
