Look at http://www.algebra.com/cgi-bin/jump-to-question.mpl?question=101519, it is same even with parabola and hyperbola.
here is the graph for check :
+graph%28+600%2C+500%2C+-10%2C+5%2C+-20%2C+15%2Cx%5E2%2B4%2Ax-12%29+
Looking at the graph, do you see the only difference.......yes there are 2 y intercepts. Good luck with your homework.
