<u>X - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
0 = -x² + 4x - 4
x = <u>-(4) +/- √((4)² - 4(-1)(-4))</u>

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).

No. It's the ratio of 1,289 to 100 .
Also, it can be written as a fraction with whole numbers
on top and bottom, like this: 1289 / 100 .
Also, it can be written down on paper completely, using
digits and a decimal point or fraction bar. (You did that.)
Any one of these three facts makes it a rational number.
