Yes simplify because the bottom is the same
If ur equation is in y = mx + b form, then the y int is in the b position.
y = mx + b
y = 4x - 14
so the number in the b position is -14, ur y int.
Distribute the 2 to both terms to get the polynomial 4x + 8
The coefficient is then the integer 4.
2 committees because if you divide 10 by 5 you get 2
Gemma was hiking for 2 1/2 a hour for 3 hours so u have to multiply 2.5 by 3 and that gonna equal 7.5 so u leave that alone and come back to it later so u get 11 3/8 minus 7.5 and it gonna equal 3 7/8 and I hope that helped you
