will give metal to best answer - name the coefficients in the expression 7x + 4 - y. A. 7 B. 7, 4, 0 C. 4 D. 7, -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know what a coefficient is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7, -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no not really, lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok it is a numerical part of algebraic term: the number placed before a letter that represents a variable in algebra so therefore the answer would be....7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, thanks :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

welcome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be 7 and -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because there is 7x and -y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-y=-1y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and how did you come up with that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've taken algebra.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Last year, that's what I was taught.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since there is a -x, the coefficient is -1, because you need to multiply x by -1 to make it negative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well that isn't how i was taught. Sorry for the confusion.
