Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercept is the point where the graph touches the x-axis, which means y=0. So let's set y=0 in your equation, and we receive
(x-5)^2 + (0+12)^ = 169
which means
(x-5)^2 = 25
Solve this, and get x=10 or x=0.
This means the x-intercepts are (10,0) and (0,0).
Try doing the same for y.
The volume of one pan is 192 units cubed. The volume of the three pans is 576 units cubed.
