Answer:
option 4. The graph has zeroes at x = 15 an x = -15 and it opens upward.
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is the equation of a vertical parabola open upward (the leading coefficient is positive)
The vertex represent a minimum
The vertex is the point (0,-225)
The axis of symmetry is x=0 (y-axis)
Find the x-intercepts (values of x when the value of y is equal to zero)
For y=0

square root both sides

therefore
The graph has zeroes at x = 15 an x = -15 and it opens upward.
Let's solve this by using the quadratic formula:

Note that we only use the coefficients so a=12, b=-14, and c=-6.
Plug values in the quadratic equation:

And so by evaluating those values we obtain:

Now we have two answers which are our factors one where we add another where we subtract and so:
First factor:

Second Factor:

And so your factors are

meaning that those are your roots/x-intercepts.
