Coefficient is the number before your variable. :)

Answer:
y=mx+b to find m or the slope, m=the change in y DIVIDED by the change in x or the rise DIVIDED by the run
Step-by-step explanation:
12 x 14 =168 square feet.
<span>If the pavers were 1 foot by 1 foot we would need 168 pavers </span>
<span>BUT.. your paver is 8 inches which is 8/12 or 2/3 of a foot. </span>
<span>It is 2/3 times 2/3 or 4/9 square ft </span>
<span>168 divided by 4/9 </span>
<span>which is the same as 168 times 9/4 </span>
<span>That will get you to 378.</span>
I suspect there's more to this problem than you've shared. Based only upon what you have shared:
"h(x) = the height, in inches) of the hill shown in the painting, where x is the distance from the left side of the painting of the point on the hill."
Double check to ensure that you've copied the entire problem to be solved.
