Answer:
10. see attached
11. axis of symmetry: x=4; vertex: (4, 4); domain: all real numbers; range: y ≤ 4
12. x = -4, -2
Explanation:
10. Your graph is substantially correct. (You might do yourself a favor by adding points ±1 either side of the vertex. This will help to make the graph more rounded near the bottom.) The red graph in the attachment is the graph of this function.

11. The vertex form of this equation is ...
f(x) = -(x² -8x) -12 = -(x² -8x +16) -12 +16
f(x) = -(x -4)² +4
This tells you the vertex is (4, 4). The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex, so is x=4. The domain of all polynomial functions is "all real numbers." This has a maximum at y=4, so the range is y ≤ 4.

12. The vertex form of this equation is ...
f(x) = (x +3)² -1
so the vertex is (-3, -1). Points at x = -3 ± 1 will be the x-intercepts, so the solutions to the equation f(x) = 0. The graph of it is the green graph in the attachment.
