<span>To do that, you need to set it all to zero and factor:
x^2+8x+15 = 0
(x+5)(x+3) = 0
then put both those in parentheses chunks in their own equations
x + 5 = 0
x + 3 = 0
and then simplify
x = -5
x = -3
So the two points where the parabola crosses the x-axis are -5 and -3.</span>
(3,452 * 2) = round trip = 6,904.
6,904 * 3 = total distance = 20,712.
Therefore, the final answer is 20,712 miles.
Answer: assuming your doing x+5 times 3 the answer for x would be 95 because 95+5 = 100 and 100 x 3 = 300
