No, you do not, you change all of the x's in the function to zeros and mulitply. Whatever you are left with that is equal to y is the answer, such as.

y= x^2 + 4x+5 y= 0^2 + 4(0) + 5

y=5 the answer can also equal zero if you do not have a y intercept.

What are you finding when you are solving a quadratic?

A number of things are to be found when solving quadratics.Firstly, the x values, or zeros, need to be found to see where the function crosses the x-axis.The y-intercept can be found when x is 0.Whether it opens upwards or down, wide or narrow, domain or range, and much more.


How do you find x-intercept?

To find the x-intercept you need to set y=0 in your equation. To find the y-intercept you need to set x=0 in your equation.


Find a possible formula for the quadratic function whose graph has x intercepts 4 and 8 and y intercept 26?

The x-intercepts are quite easy. Just write the equation: y = (x - 4)(x - 8) To get the desired y-intercept, you need to multiply this by a scale factor (a constant). Just calculate the y-intercept for the equation as shown above; that will show you by what constant you need to multiply (for example, if the y-intercept is 13, add a factor of 2, to get 26).
