A coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g. 4 in 4x).
The 2 and + are out since they don't have variables(and the + is just a +).
So 4 and x are left. x is a variable, not a coefficient, so the last(and correct) answer is 4.

Answer:
4 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at this expression as given in the original problem; the numbers, properly typewritten, are -5 1/2, - 4 1/4, + 6 3/4.
We want to combine these three numbers into one.
To do this, we need the LCD; it is 4.
Thus, -5 1/2 is rewritten as -5 2/4.
Then we have
-5 2/4 - 4 1/4 + 6 3/4 = -5 -4 + 6 + 2/4 + 1/4 + 3/4.
This simplifies to: +3 + 6/4, or 3 + 1 + 2/4, or
4 1/2
Answer:
it's B, C, and D
Step-by-step explanation:
A. w ⋅ 462 = 16 1/2
not A
w * a ≠ l
B. 16 1/2 ⋅ w = 462
is B
l * w = a
C. 462 ÷ 16 1/2 = w
is C
a / l = w
D. 462 ÷ w = 16 1/2
is D
a / w = l
E. 16 1/2 ⋅ 462 = w
not E
l * a ≠ w
The final answer would be:
9x / (x-8)
The exact steps are shown in the attached picture.
Note that when dividing two fractions, we convert the division into multiplication and flip the second term.
