Y = X2 - 8X + 12

set to 0

X2- 8X + 12 = 0

X2 - 8X = - 12

halve the coefficient of the linear term, ( - 8 ), square it and add it to both sides

X2 - 8X + 16 = - 12 + 16

factor on the left and gather term on the right

(X - 4)2 = 4

(X - 4)2 - 4 = 0

IS means equals, OF means to multiply.x (28) = 5 solve, get a decimal answer and convert it to a percent.x = 5/28 = 0.1786 = 17.86%Pick which method you like best to use.
