Question

What is the coefficient in -x+9

Answer 1

-1

Explanation:

The coefficient is the number directly next to a given variable (typically 1 if there is no given number).

In this case, note the variable: -x

As stated above, the number is 1 if there is no number given. However, note that there is a negative sign, therefore, your coefficient is -1

-1 is your answer.
