How do i find values for solutions that have alredy been graphed

Question

anonymous · Answer

Can you give an example as to what you need?

anonymous · Answer

I have a homwork page and it says to give approximate values for the solutions to the equation and lable the vertex

anonymous · Answer

can you give a graph or diagram?

anonymous · Answer

Generally, the solutions is where the graph intersects the x-axis.

anonymous · Answer

no the page was printed i just want to know what i have to do with the graph aka can i have an example

anonymous · Answer

|dw:1383508978703:dw|

anonymous · Answer

x = -2 and x = 4 are the 2 places where the graph intersects the x-axis, so x = -2 and x = 4 are solutions to the equation when set equal to 0.

You can clearly see the vertex (or turning point).
