Explanation:

The coefficient for the equation is 5 and 8 as both of the numbers have a variable by its side (the letter x & y). Meanwhile the terms for the equation are 5x, -8y, and 9. This is because all those numbers have an operation symbol. Keep in mind that 5x, has a positive operation at the front of the number but it is not written to the equation to make it simpler. Hope this helps ease up your understanding.
