Answer:
2 real solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the determinant, which says that for a quadratic of the form ax² + bx + c, we can determine what kind of solutions it has by looking at the determinant of the form:
b² - 4ac
If b² - 4ac > 0, then there are 2 real solutions. If b² - 4ac = 0, then there is 1 real solution. If b² - 4ac < 0, then there are 2 imaginary solutions.
Here, a = 6, b = -20, and c = 1. So, plug these into the determinant formula:
b² - 4ac
(-20)² - 4 * 6 * 1 = 400 - 24 = 376
Since 376 is clearly greater than 0, we know this quadratic has 2 real solutions.

A fraction x/y is a ratio between two numbers x and y.
The ratio is preserved if both x and y are scaled up or down by the same number n.
This means you can obtain any fraction equivalent to x/y by multiplying both x and y by n, i.e. (n*x)/(n*y).
Then we have 1/4 = (2*1)/(2*4) = 2/8, for example.
First, plug in the given point into y=mx +b to find b (the y-intercept of the line). Use the same slope (m) in the equation since parallel lines have the same slope (3 in this case).
-1 = 3(4) +b
-1 = 12 + b Subtract 12 to both sides.
-13 = b
Now, put your m and b into y=mx+b.
The final answer/equation of your line is:
y=3x -13
The answer is B: (-1/4, 1/2)
