Solution

Step I: Finding the term with factor $x$ .
$p x + y$ is having two terms $p x$ and $y$ .
All the constants, variables and expressions that are multiplied to form a term are called its factors.
So, from these two terms, the term with factor $x$ is $p x$ .
Step II: Finding the coefficient of the factor $x$ in $p x$ .
The coefficient of $x$ will be all other constants and variables from the given term which are multiplied to $x$ .
Here, $p$ is multiplied to $x$ .
Hence, the coefficient of $x$ is $p$ .
Therefore, In $p x + y$ , the term with factor $x$ is $p x$ and its coefficient is $p$
