Answer:
A. Vertex (-3, -1)
B. y-intercept: (0, 8)
C. x-intercept: (-2, 0), (-4, 0)
D. Domain: (-∞, ∞)
E. Range: [-1, ∞)
F. x = -3
G. Coordinates:
(-5, 3)
(-4, 0)
(-3, -1)
(-2, 0)
(-1, 3)
Explanation:
y = x² + 6x + 8
(x + 2) (x + 4)
x + 2 = 0 x + 4 = 0
-2 -2 -4 -4
x = -2 x = -4
x-intercept: (-2, 0), (-4, 0)
y-intercept: (0, 8)
y = x² + 6x + 8
y = (0)² + 6(0) + 8
y = 8
Vertex:
a b c
y = x^2 + 6x + 8
-b -(6) -6
x = ------- = ------ = ------ = -3
2a 2(1) 2
y = x^2 + 6x + 8
y = (-3)^2 + 6(-3) + 8
y = 9 - 18 + 8 = -1
Vertex: (-3, -1)
