I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.
Answer:
x=-2,2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a quadratic equation, -2 or 2 could be the possible answer
Steps
$3x^2=12$
$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}3$
$\frac{3x^2}{3}=\frac{12}{3}$
$\mathrm{Simplify}$
$x^2=4$
$\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$
$x=\sqrt{4},\:x=-\sqrt{4}$
Show Steps
$\sqrt{4}=2$
Show Steps
$-\sqrt{4}=-2$
$x=2,\:x=-2$
So just add 1/8 and 2/8. add 1 plus 2 and the denominator (bottom number) stays the same so you get 3/8 then subtract 8/8 minus 3/8 so just 8 minus 3 is 5 and the denominator stays the same so you end up with 5/8 so 5/8 of the book remains unread
Split the shape in to two this is the rectangular side.
15+6=21
21×7=147
147×4=588in
square shape
6+6=12
12×12=144
144×4=576in
then add the answers together
588+576=1164in
1164 is how many more inches greater
