Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The term 8x is a product (as is any term). It is the product of a constant coefficient (8) and a variable (x). The "coefficient" is the multiplier of the variable of interest, so is 8 in this term.
_____
The word "coefficient" is often used to refer to the constant multiplier in any term. For example, in the term 6xy, if we just ask for the coefficient, we are interested in the value 6.
On the other hand, if we ask for the coefficient of y in that term, we expect to be told it is <em>6x</em>. That is, the "coefficient" is the multiplier of the specified variable or constellation of variables.

From law of indices
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>
[A] Plane S contains points B and E.</h2>
False
As indicated in Figure A below, Plane S contains only point B (remarked in red). Point E (remarked in blue) lies on plane R.
<h2>
[B] The line containing points A and B lies entirely in plane T.</h2>
True
As indicated in Figure B below, the line containing points A and B lies entirely in plane T. That line has been remarked in red and it is obvious that lies on plane T.
<h2>
[C] Line v intersects lines x and y at the same point.</h2>
False
As indicated in Figure C below, line v intersects lines x and y, but line x in intersected at point B while line y (remarked in red) is intersected at point A (remarked in blue), and they are two different points, not the same.
<h2>
[D] Line z intersects plane S at point C.</h2>
True
As indicated in Figure D below, line z that has been remarked in yellow, intersects plane S at point C that has been remarked in blue.
<h2>
[E] Planes R and T intersect at line y.</h2>
True
As indicated in Figure E below, planes R and T intersect at line y. The line of intersection has been remarked in red.
