So, we are given the y intercept, and since we know c is the same as the y value of the y intercept, we know that c=15.
From there we can pick any two of the points given to us to find our a and b.
Let's use (4,17) and (8,23) becase they are whole numbers.

So, with b=0, we can plug it back into the first equation to get:
So our quadratic is 
SAS and SSS cannot be solved using the Law of Sines.
Factor out the gcf first.
3(4y^2-9)
The binomial inside is a perfect square so keep factoring.
3(2y+3)(2y-3)
The pair of binomials cannot be further factored so stop there.
Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the a.
Add 4 to both sides
a- 4 (+4) = 15 (+4)
a = 15 + 4
a = 19
19 is your answer for a
hope this helps
