Question

HELLLLLLLLP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

For the expression 6 − y + 3, determine the coefficient for the variable term.

A −1
B 0
C 3
D 6

Answer 1

A -1

Explanation:

The coefficient is the number in front of a variable. since there isn't a number we can conclude that the y is only there once. There is 1 (one) y. Since it is subtracting in front of the coefficient, we can determine it is taking one away, or -1. So 6-y+3 is 6-1y+3.
