When we want to find the roots of a one-variable function, we look for where its graph intersects the x-axis. In this case, the graph intersects the x-axis at 
The vertex of a parabola is the highest or lowest point on it, depending on whether the leading coefficient of the quadratic function is negative or positive. In this case, we see that the lowest point is 
For the y-intercept, just look for where the graph intersects the y-axis; in this case, that point is 
Using this information, the vertex-form equation of the parabola is 
so the factors are two copies of 
In this case, the value of 
in the equation 
was conveniently 1; if that's not the case, you'll want to plug in 
to solve for the value of a that gives the correct y-intercept.
Does that help clear things up?

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The axis of symmetry of quadratic ax²+bx+c is x=-b/(2a). For the given equation, the axis of symmetry is ...
x = -4/(2(3/2)) = -4/3
The only graph with its vertex at x=-4/3 is graph A.

<em>Additional comment</em>
You can also make the correct choice by evaluating the equation at a couple of different values of x. Convenient ones are x= -1, or 0, or +1. The value at x=0 is the y-intercept, (0, -2), which seems to be a point on all of the graphs. The value at x=1 is 3/2+4-2 = 3.5, which looks like it is only seen on graph A.

Answer:
Our score = 0.60, Amanda's score = 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
For Amanda
μ = 15 , σ = 4
z- score for X = 16 is (From z table)
z = (X - μ)/σ = (16 - 15)/4 = 0.25
For us
μ = 310 , σ = 25
z score for X = 325 (From z table)
z = (325-310)/25 = 0.60
Since our z score is better than Amanda's z score, we can say we did better
