F(x) = x^2 - 8x + 8
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=1, b=-8, and c=8
---
to solve the above equation using the quadratic formula, plug this:
1 -8 8

Answer 1:
the roots (x-intercepts) of the above quadratic equation are:
6.82842712
1.17157288
---
the y-intercept of the above quadratic equation is:
y = x^2 - 8x + 8
y = 0^2 - 8(0) + 8
y = 8
