There are four variables.
There are four variables.

8, −3
, 2, and 9 are coefficients.
8, negative 3 , 2, and 9 are coefficients.

8, −3
, 2, and 9 are constants.
8, negative 3 , 2, and 9 are constants.

8 is the only factor of 8x
.

Answer 1

"8, −3, 2, and 9 are coefficients."

They are the numbers multiplying the variables x and y. (There are only two variables, x and y; 8x has factors 8 and x, so 8 is not the only factor.)
