It failed to bring about peace and only angered King George III

The Olive Branch petition was a final attempt by the colonists to avoid going to war with Britain. The purpose was to appease King George III and prevent the conflict between the colonies and Britain from escalating into a full blown war. However, the king refused to read it. And then came the war.

P(x)=3x^2+12x+7 find coordinates of vertex and intercepts

kotegsom [21]

Te x intercepts are where the graph crosses the x axis or wher y=0
the y intercept is where the graph crosses the y axis or where x=0

to find vertex, here is a hack
the x coordinate of the vertex for an equation in form ax^b+bx+c=y is -b/2a

so
y=3x^2+12x+7
-b/2a=-12/2(3)=-12/6=-2
sub that back
y=3(-2)^2+12(-2)+7
y=3(3)-24+7
y=9-17
y=-8

vertex is (-2,-8)

intercepts
x intercept is where y=0

0=3x^2+12x+7
using quadratic formula
x=(-6-√15)/3 and (-6+√15)/3
xints at ((-6-√15)/3,0) and ((-6+√15)/3,0)

yint is where x=0
set x=0
y=7
yint is at y=7 or (0,7)

vertex at (-2,-8)
xints at x= $\frac{-6+ \sqrt{15} }{3}$ and $\frac{-6- \sqrt{15} }{3}$ or at the points $( \frac{-6+ \sqrt{15} }{3} , 0)$ and $(\frac{-6- \sqrt{15} }{3},0)$
yint at y=7 or at (7,0)
