• The Coefficient Of x is 5 .

Answer 2

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

A coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression.

The variable (x) is multiplied with the number 5, hence it's coefficient is 5.

(It is important to note that coefficients are only of the specific term, i.e., the rest of the expression (-3y), has no effect on the coefficient.)
