:
first lets complete the square
:
:
:
vertex is at (-1,-9)
axis of symmetry is x=-1
:
y intercept is found by setting x to zero--->y=0+0-8
so y intercept is -8: (0,-8)
:
x intercept is found by setting y to zero--->
:
x intercepts are 2 and -4: (2,0) and (-4,0)
:
domain is all real numbers: range is all real
:
function has a minimum value:
:
