You can put this solution on YOUR website!
There is one x-intercept for $\"+f%28x%29+\"$ at (0,0)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+g%28x%29+\"$ is $\"+f%28x%29+\"$ raised vertically by $\"+2+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "units, so there is no x-intercept for $\"+g%28x%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "You can see this by $\"+g%28x%29+=+0+\"$ and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x%5E2+%2B+2+=+0+\"$ , then $\"+x+=+sqrt%282%29%2Ai+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+-sqrt%282%29%2Ai+\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
