I don't think you can solve that without knowing more about the polynomial

anonymous · Answer

it's a parabola ryt

anonymous · Answer

Well you need to show us the plotted points

i got the points now please help me

anonymous · Answer

Well a root of the polynomial, graphically, is a place where y=0, so you must find the points on the graph where y=0, or stated differently, the points on the graph that intersect the x axis

anonymous · Answer

you can reverse engineer for the parabola, but that's probably not what they want you to do. You probably just want to check where it intersects the x axis, and approximate that
