20 points thanks :) im kinda stuck lol

1. (a) 0 = x² + 4x - 12 (Switch Sides)

x² + 4x - 12 = 0 (Factor Expression)

(x - 2)(x + 6) = 0 (Apply the Zero Factor Principle)

x = 2, and x = - 6

x - intercept : (2, 0) and ( - 6, 0)

(b) y = (0)² + 4(0) - 12 (Simplify)

y = 0 + 4 * 0 - 12 = 0 + 0 - 12 = - 12

y - intercept : (0, - 12)

(c) Our vertex belongs to an upward facing parabola, and hence it will be a minimum, of ( - 2, - 16).

2. Seth's solution is not accurate. He did the calculations accurately, and ended up with x = 3 and x = - 2. However he forgot to substitute those values back into the equations y = x² + 3x - 5 and y = 4x + 1, solving for the y values. Instead of being ( - 2, 0) and (3, 0) it should have been (3, 13), ( - 2, - 7)...

y = (3)² + 3(3) - 5 = 9 + 9 - 5 = 18 - 5 = 13,

y = 4( - 2) + 1 = - 8 + 1 = - 7

Hence we get the solutions (3, 13) and ( - 2, - 7).

chase is right because he already been to the swings and he know how far it will be to get there
