well, is noteworthy that an x-intercept is when y = 0 or namely is a solution or root of the quadratic, so we know then that the x-intercepts or solutions are at (-1,0) and (3,0), that simply means that

![\bf -8=a(2)(-2)\implies -8=-4a\implies \cfrac{-8}{-4}=a\implies \boxed{2=a} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ y=2(x+1)(x-3)\implies y=2(\stackrel{\mathbb{FOIL}}{x^2-2x-3})\implies y=2x^2-4x-6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20-8%3Da%282%29%28-2%29%5Cimplies%20-8%3D-4a%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B-8%7D%7B-4%7D%3Da%5Cimplies%20%5Cboxed%7B2%3Da%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill%5C%5C%5C%5C%20y%3D2%28x%2B1%29%28x-3%29%5Cimplies%20y%3D2%28%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cmathbb%7BFOIL%7D%7D%7Bx%5E2-2x-3%7D%29%5Cimplies%20y%3D2x%5E2-4x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the octagon = 2(1+√2)8=309.02 units
15. 16 yards. Add side a (2 yds.) and b (6 yds.), divide by 2 and then multiply by the height (4 yds.)
16. I believe it would be 48 m. find the area of each rectangle and then add it. (6x2)+(12x3) -> 12+36= 48 square meters.
Hope it helps! -cat
The mean of the data set is 26 because the sum of all the data points divided by the number of data points is 26.4 repeating which rounds to 26.
