Question 133523: I just get confused with problems such as:

y=(1/8)x^2
I need to find the x-intercepts, but I do not know how to put the equation into the form that is needed. I believe it is standard form.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Y=(1/8)X^2
Y=X^2/8
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-20%2C+20%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+x%5E2%2F8%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -20 to 20, y from -10 to 10, x^2/8).
