Expression: 20x + 9y = earnings

20 in 20x is the coefficient because 20 is the numerical value that is multiplying the variable x. Generally, the coefficient is placed before the variable. 

The letter x in the term 20x is a variable because it is an unknown and changeable numerical value. The letter x can represent different numbers.

20x is a term in the expression. Terms are parted by a addition or subtraction signs.
