Answer: 6
A coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression.
In this case we want to find the coefficient that has x. 6 is the only coefficient in the expression 6x + 9y + 15z that has the coefficient of x.
Basically, a coefficient is simply a number that has a variable after it.
Answer:
Bert has $45.
Step-by-step explanation:
I have no real strategy, except for that I used guess and check. How did I do this? Well, since I am in 5th Grade, I don't know algebra very well, so I made an organized chart and checked all the numbers that had to be a multiple and could be divided equally by 5, 3 and when a third of that number was subtracted by 6, it was a fifth of the orginal number. Thats how I got 45.
Checking this answer:
It is always important to check your answer after finishing the problem, so this is how I checked my answer:
1. 45 divided by 3 = 15
2. 15 - 6 = 9, and 9 is 1/5 of 45
Bert has $45.
