Answer 2

Answer:

The coefficient for x is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

IN context to the given question we have to find the coefficient of x .

as we know that;

Coefficient is the multiplicative factor of the variable;

Given equation; 8 - x + 2y

coefficient of x for the given equation  = (-1)(x) = -x

∴ Therefore, the coefficient for x is -1.

Similarly for better conceptual answer and understanding,

coefficient of y for the given equation = (2)(y) =2y.

∴ Therefore, the coefficient for y is 2.

The coefficient for x is -1.
