Formula of the parabola:  (x - h)²<span> = 4p(y - k)
(h,k) is a vertex, </span>(1,-9) is a vertex.
<span>h=1, k= - 9

Substitute h and k into formula </span>(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)
(x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9)

Substitute x and y of the y-intercept
(x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9), x=0,y=-6.
(0 - 1)² = 4p(-6 + 9)
1 = 4p*3
1/3 = 4p, substitute value of 4p into (x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9).
 
(x - 1)² = 1/3(y + 9)
x²-2x+1=(1/3)y + 3
(1/3)y = x²-2x-2
y = 3x² - 6x -6

x-intercepts, is values of x when y=0.
3x² - 6x -6 = 0
x²-2x-2=0

We will find values of x using formula.
x= \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} &#10;\\ \\ a=1, b=-2,c=-2&#10;\\ \\x= \frac{2+/- \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4*1*(-2)} }{2*1} &#10;\\ \\x= \frac{2+/- \sqrt{4+8} }{2} &#10;\\ \\x= \frac{2+/- \sqrt{12} }{2} = \frac{2+/- 2\sqrt{3} }{2}=1+/- \sqrt{3} &#10;\\ \\x_{1} =1- \sqrt{3} ,  x_{2} =1+ \sqrt{3} &#10;\\ \\x_{1} =-0.732,  x_{2} =2.732

What is the range of h (x)
Svet_ta [14]

The range of the function is the set of all possible outputs, that is, the set of all values obtained by applying the function to elements of the domain. So the set of all values which can be obtained by applying h(x) to an element of its domain is {−4,0,5,60} , and thus that is the range of h(x) .
