Variable = k, Constant = 15, Coefficient = -10

Explanation:

Consider the general form of the linear expression mx+cmx+c

Where the variable is xx, the coefficient of x is mm and the constant term is cc

In this example: -10k+15 -> x=k, c=15, m=-1010k+15x=k,c=15,m=10

Hence: Variable = k, Constant = 15, Coefficient = -10
