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

anonymous · Answer

let x = 0

y-intercept = (0-3^2 - 25 = -16

anonymous · Answer

y=x^2+9-25

would come out to be equation simplified

anonymous · Answer

let y = 0

0 = (x -3)^ - 25

or

25 = (x-3)^2

take the square root of both sides

5 = x - 3     or   -5 = x - 3

solve

x = 8 or  x = -2
