Problem

Solution

Part A

For this case we can do this:

[tex]-9=x^2+2x-8[/tex]

And solving for x we got:

[tex]-1=x^2+2x=x(x+2)[/tex]

Then the possible solutions for this case is x= -1

Part B

For this case we can do the following:

[tex]0=x^2+2x-8[/tex]

And if we factorize we got:

[tex]0=(x+4)(x-2)[/tex]

And the x intercepts are:

x=-4 and x=2

And the y intercept is just (0,-8)

Part C

For this case we can do the following:

x y

-4 0

-3 -5

-2 -8

-1 -9

0 -8

1 -5

2 0

3 7

4 16

and the graph would be given by:
