If you want me to solve for "Y" then, the answer will be,

ir if you want me to solve for "X" instead then the answer will be,

Answer:
24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
One member of the gardening club can alone plant flowers in 12 hours.
So in 1 hour he can plant 1/12 of the flowers.
Let the time required by the second member of the club to plant flowers alone be x hours.
Then in 1 hour he can plant 1/x of the flowers.
Now when the two members work together,each hour they can plant:
of the flowers.
But they can together complete the job in 8 hours. So in one hour they plant 1/8 of the flowers.
=> ![\[\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B12%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
=> ![\[\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{24}\] ](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D%0A)
=> x=24
So the second member can plant the flowers alone in 24 hours
<u>X - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
0 = -x² + 4x - 4
x = <u>-(4) +/- √((4)² - 4(-1)(-4))</u>
2(-1)
x = <u>-4 +/- √(16 - 16)</u>
-2
x = <u>-4 +/- √(0)
</u> -2<u>
</u> x = <u>-4 +/- 0
</u> -2<u>
</u> x = <u>-4 + 0</u> x = <u>-4 - 0</u>
-2 -2
x = <u>-4</u> x = <u>-4</u>
-2 -2
x = 2 x = 2
The solution to the problem is {2, 2}, or {2}. The x - intercept of the problem is (2, 0).
<u>Y - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
f(x) = -(0)² + 4(0) - 4
f(x) = -(0) + 0 - 4
f(x) = -0 + 0 - 4
f(x) = 0 - 4
f(x) = -4
The y - intercept of the problem is (0, -4).
