Question 922994: Please help me solve this: +-x%5E2%2B8x-17+
I need to graph it and so far I've gotten that my y-intercept is (0,-17) and my x-intercepts would be (-8+2i,0) and (-8-2i,0) but I don't know how to graph that.Thank you.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It opens down and is below the x axis
vertex=(4,-1)
y intercept=(0,-17)
the mirror is (8,-17)
