9 + 4 (x + 2) - 3x What is the term that best describes 3 in this expression?

For this case we have that by definition, a coefficient is a factor linked to a monomial.
Example:
[tex]-5x ^ 3[/tex]
- : It's the sign
5: It is the coefficient
x: It is the variable
3: It is the degree
Then, according to the given expression, we can conclude that the number 3 that accompanies the variable "x" is defined as a coefficient.
