An expression is shown below: f(x) = 4x2 + 8x − 5

Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work.

Part B: Is the vertex of the graph of f(x) going to be a maximum or minimum? What are the coordinates of the vertex? Justify your answers and show your work.

Part C: What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)? Justify that you can use the answers obtained in Part A and Part B to draw the graph.
