Identify the coefficient(s) in the following expression: 10x + 5y – 8y

A coefficient is the quantity before a variable that multiplies the variable. For example, for , 11 is the coefficient. For , 1 is the coefficient.

Here, there's a 10 in front of the x-term, a 5 in front of the first y-term, and a –8 in front of the second y-term. These are your coefficients, but your teacher may want you to simplify first. . If this is the case, then the coefficients are 10 and –3.

The correct answer would be "convenience"
