The graph described is the graph of a quadratic function.
The x-intercept of the function is at; (8, 0).
<h3>What type of function is described by the graph?</h3>
It follows from the description box of the graph that it begins in the third quadrant, and rises through a series of points in the first quadrant before it exits the first quadrant.
Hence, it follows that the graph is a quadratic function and its x-intercept is at point; (8,0).
