Answer:
vertex: (4, -18)
domain: all real numbers
range: y ≥ -18
axis of symmetry: x = 4
x-intercepts: {-2, 10}
y-intercept: -10
min/max value: -18
equation: y= x^2 - 8x - 20

Explanation:

- for the vertex, look at the graph. it should be the maxi/minimum point.
- the domain is all real numbers because this quadratic function has no restrictions. as you can see, there are arrows on both ends.
- the range can be -18 or greater than -18 as shown by the graph.
- the axis of symmetry is x = 4. it's like the mirror line.
- the x-intercept is when the function touches the x axis when y is equal to 0.
- the y-intercept is when x = 0 on the y axis.

- the min/max value is basically the y coordinate of the vertex. you can also look at the graph for it.
- find the quadratic equation using the roots
y = (x+2)(x-10)
y = x^2 -8x - 20
