Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

→Question: Find the coefficient of y in the term -y/3

↔Answer:

• Let's know what is a coefficient:
• It can be defined as the number/constant multiplied by a variable,
• Ex: In the term 17y , the coefficient of y is 17, as 17 is been multiplied with y to form 17y.

⇔Similarly in the term -y/3 , the coefficient of the term y is -1.

↔As -1 is been multiplied with y to form -y.

⇔ ∴ -y/3 can be written as -1/3
