The y-intercept is zero because you result as when you fill in zero for .
f(x)= -3x^2+5x
Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

Discriminant d=25 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 0, 1.66666666666667. Here's your graph:
