\"+f%28x%29+=+4x%5E2+%2B+4x+%2B+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "You find the y-intercept by making \"+x+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+f%28x%29+=+f%280%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+f%280%29+=+4%2A0%5E2+%2B+4%2A0+%2B+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+f%280%29+=+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept is at ( 0, 6 )
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "You find the x-intercepts by making \"+f%28x%29+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+0+=+4x%5E2+%2B+4x+%2B+6+\"
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by \"+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+0+=+2x%5E2+%2B+2x+%2B+3+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use the quadratic formula
\n" ); document.write( "when the form is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+f%28x%29+=+a%2Ax%5E2+%2B+b%2Ax+%2B+c+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+%28+-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2+-+4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+\"

\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The roots in this case are a pair
\n" ); document.write( "of imaginaries called a complex conjugate pair.
\n" ); document.write( "There are no actual intersections with the x-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Here's the plot so you can see the y-intercept,
\n" ); document.write( "and the fact that there is no intersection with x-axis
