Answer:
A linear function is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
An exponential equation is written as:
y = A*(r)^x
Where A is the initial quantity and r is the rate of growth.
If a and A are both positives, the similar characteristic of both types of functions is that as x increases, then the value of y will also increase. Then both functions are increasing functions.
They are different in how they increase, while a linear function increases at a constant rate, an exponential function increases slow at the beginning and really fast as x increases, as you can see in the image below where we compare the two types of functions, the green one is the linear function, and the blue one is the exponential function.

First of all, you can simplify the 4 at the numerator and the 14 at the denominator (they're both multiple of 2):
Now, rationalize a denominator means that you have to get rid of the square root, in order to have an integer denominator.
To do so, remember that you can always multiply any number by 1 without changing its value, and you can always think of 1 as a fraction where numerator and denominator are equal:
