Answer:

  1. The coefficient is 4
  2. The constant is 3

Explanation:

  1. The coefficient is the number that is right next to a variable. So, the coefficient in this expression, would be 4 because it's right next to k.
  2. The constant is a number that it by itself. So, the constant in this expression, would be 3 because it's by itself (no variable attached to it).

I hope this helps!

Answer:

4 is the co efficient and 3 is the constant

Co efficients are when a number is close to a variable, constants are a number by itself.
