X intercept is when the function (y) = 0.
0 = 4 - (x+3)^2
(x+3)(x+3) = 4
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 4
x^2 + 6x + 5 = 0
To factor, we find what multiplies to 5 and adds to 6. In this case, it’s 5 and 1.
(x+5)(x+1) = 0
x values of the intercepts are -5 and -1.
The coordinates are (-5,0) and (-1,0).
C is also the best answer
Suspecting that his parents are going to give him $1,300 continually you would solve like this
$120,000-$100= $19,900
$19,900/$1,300= 92.23
92.23 is the amount of $1,300 donations it would take from his parents, so if he was getting $1,300 month it would take 92.23 months
