Question 1103113: Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept for the parabola whose equation is given.In an intercept is an irrational number, round it to the nearest tenth.
1.y=-2^2+19x-90
2.y=-x^2+24x+64
3.y=x^2+4x-7

y=0;
solve for x.

Finding x-intercepts:
Let y=0 and solve for x.
You could or should general solution for quadratic equation. Just follow the formula and solve for x in -x%5E2%2B24x%2B64=0; or factorize if possible.

Finding y-intercept:
Just let x=0 and solve for y. That will be your y-intercept.
This is not more than simple substitution, as in y=-0%5E2%2B24%2A0%2B64.
