The equation x^2 + 11x + 24 looks like this when graphed.

I hope this helps!

To graph a parabola without a calculator, we can factor it to find its root values. These are the x values where the graph is equal to 0 (on the x-axis).

x^2 + 11x + 24 can be factored to:

(x+8)(x+3)

Set both factors equal to 0 to find the roots:

x+8=0
x=-8

x+3=0
x=-3

So the graph crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = -3.

Next we can find the vertex of the graph. This is the point where the slope changes directions. Since the x^2 term is positive, we know the parabola is facing up (like a smile face). Therefore the vertex is a minimum value.

We can find the x value of the minima by finding the difference between the roots. Half way from -3 to -8 is -5.5.

Next we can find the y value by plugging -5.5 in for x:

y = (-5.5)^2 + 11(-5.5) + 24 = -6.25

So the vertex is at (-5.5, -6.25)

Note: Minima and maxima can be found easier by using calculus.

From these three points we can draw a pretty accurate graph of the equation. See the attached picture.

Lelechka [254]
I'd suggest you sketch this situation.  If you did, you'd likely see right away that the shortest distance back to the starting point would be the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose legs are of lengths 5 miles and 12 miles.

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this.
