Bruno Chavez · Answer 1

5 is a coefficient

3y+13 is the factor

-1 is a constant

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given an expression to complete the statement:

In the first term 5 is a coefficient of x.

A coefficient is a number multiplied by a variable.

In the second term, 3y+13 is the factor

It can be multiplied by 8 to get an extended answer

In the third term - 1 is a constant

A constant is a number that does not change
