Burn in the deepths of my grandmother's bunion's. Im here and getting my diploma now right? You don't know my story @Pamela16 so before you go talking smack tell me how I should come about finding the y intercept.

anonymous · Answer

So @ccswims would the degree be 4?

anonymous · Answer

@Warriorz13 thank you.

ccswims · Answer

The end polynomial is: 

2x^5 + 7x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x - 12 I believe

anonymous · Answer

o woops so the degree is 10?

ccswims · Answer

No, it's only a 5th degree

ccswims · Answer

and the y-intercept is -12
