Answer:
x = 2, and 6
x = 2 , 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic function to analyze is: 
In order to find where the corresponding parabola intercepts the x axis, we set it equal to zero (y = 0):
This equation is easy to solve by factoring. We look for a air of integer numbers whose product equals the constant term "12", and whose combinig renders the coefficient of the middle term of the trinomial "-8".
The two such numbers are "-2" and "-6". We use them to split the middle term, and then solve by factoring by grouping:
For the product of two factors to render zero, we need either one to be a zero.This means that (x-2)=0 (that is x = 2), or (x-6)=0 (that is x = 6).
So, there are two x-intercepts: x= 2, and 6

Have a look at the image attachment. I've added the points A, B, C, D such that
A = base of the diving board pole, or location of the pool deck
B = the location 1.6 meters directly above point A
C = location of the person's eyes
D = diving board location
The goal is to find the length of segment AD
We are given
AB = 1.6
BC = 3.67
what we want to find is
BD = x
Due to the fact we have similar right triangles ABC and CBD, we can form the proportion below and solve for x
AB/BC = BC/BD
1.6/3.67 = 3.67/x
1.6*x = 3.67*3.67
1.6*x = 13.4689
1.6*x/1.6 = 13.4689/1.6
x = 8.4180625
So BD is 8.4180625 meters
Use this to find the length of AD
AD = AB + BD
AD = 1.6 + 8.4180625
AD = 10.0180625
which rounds to
10.0 meters when rounding to the nearest tenth (one decimal place)
