The answer is B x = -4. x= 3
You must factor the equation by find what 2 numbers can multiply to equal -12 and add to equal 1.
-3 and 4 are the two numbers. Now to put it in factor form would be:
(x - 3)(x + 4) = 0
They y also must equal zero.
Since its equals to 0, we must solve for x for the binomial.
x - 3 = 0 ; x = 3
x + 4 = 0 ; x = -4
The answer you get from solving x, is that answer
The answer is 150 parents. Because 450/3=150
The correct answer is: [C]: " (0, 24) " .

Explanation:
___________________________________________________________
Given the quadratic function:
___________________________________________________________
→ " y = (x <span>− 8) (x + 3) " ; </span>← Note: Replace the "f(x)" with: "y" ;
→ Find the "y-intercept".
___________________________________________________________
→ Note: The "y-intercept" is the coordinate of the point(s) of the graph of the equation at which the graph crosses the "x-axis" when "x = 0" .
→ So; we set plug in "0" for "x" into our equation; and solve for "y" ;
→ " y = (x − 8) (x + 3) " ;
→ y = (0 − 8) (0 + 3) ;
→ y = (-8) * (3) ;
→ y = - 24 ;
___________________________________________________________
So, the "y -intercept" of the <em><u>given</u></em> quadratic function is:
the point at which: "x = 0 ; y = -24 " ;
→ that is; the point the coordinates: " (0, - 24) " ;
___________________________________________________________
→ which is: Answer choice: [C]: " (0, - 24) " .
