the coefficient of the variable
The numerical factor of a term is called the "coefficient."
a variable minus a number and the same variable is b-6b= -5b
The coefficient of a variable is the number before it that indicates that variable's quantity. In this case, it's 6.
The coefficient of 7y is 7 because 7 is the number found before the variable, y. This suggests that the given number is 7*y. In any number ax, where a is a real number and x is a variable, a would be the coefficient and the product of that number would be a*x.
Just the number, for example: 7x the variable is 7. The variable is the number without the variable(x,y,z, etc.)
before
The coefficient
In math, it is the number that comes before the variable, such as x. In chemistry, it is the number that comes before the chemical formula.
A number before a variable (letter) is called the coefficient of the variable. Both of them makes a term, or a monomial.
The number before the variable. Ex: 2x - 2 is the coefficient.
The number before the variable. Ex: 2x - 2 is the coefficient.
The numerical factor of a term is called the "coefficient."

The coefficient of a variable is the number before it that indicates that variable's quantity. In this case, it's 6.
the number next to a variable that multiplies the variable
A coefficient is a number before a variable. For example, in 2x, the 2 would be the coefficient
its the number before the variable. example: 2x itd be 2
