Answer:

-2

(The coordinate point is (0,-2))

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make an equation of the line.

Start off with finding the slope:

Slope = (13-1)/(5-1) = 12/4 = 3

Then solve for the y-intercept though substitution and simplification:

y=mx+b --> 1=3(1)+b --> 1=3+b --> b= -2

So the answer is -2.

Which polynomials are in standard form?

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Regular type is called the form in which polynomials are mostly used. The parameters are calibrated to the lowest degree. The polynomial x4 + 2x3+x+11 is standard, for instance, because four are most strong and three and one are the strongest.

If the discriminant is negative then the quadratic has

zepelin [54]

Answer:

No real solutions (or has two complex roots)

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant, b² - 4ac, is the expression (radicand ) of the quadratic equation:

$x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$ .

The value of the discriminant determines the nature and the number of solutions given by the quadratic equation.

A discriminant with a negative value (or b² - 4ac < 0 ) means that the quadratic equation has no real solutions or two complex solutions. Quadratic equations with a negative discriminant also have no x-intercepts; thus, its graph will not cross the x-axis.
