What are the x– and y–intercepts of the quadratic equation y = (x – 3)2 – 25? Identify the x–intercepts by graphing the quadratic equation.

Question

eyust707 · Answer

you must have written it down wrong because that is not a quadratic equation

eyust707 · Answer

is it like this?
$$y=(x-3)^2-25 $$

anonymous · Answer

oh yes i'm sorry, i can't do that sign on here. but that's how it is.

anonymous · Answer

$$x - 3 = \pm 5$$

x = 8 or -5

anonymous · Answer

y-intercept is -25
x-intercepts are 8 and -2

anonymous · Answer

x- intercepts are correct but not y-intercept

anonymous · Answer

y - intercept is -16

anonymous · Answer

you find the y intercept by making x=0 and then solving for y... and i should have checked my answers. y intercept is -16
