KEY WORDS
•X-intercept
•Roots of a Quadratic Equation
9.5 Solving Quadratic Equations by
Graphing
The x-intercepts of graph y = ax2 + bx + c are the
solutions of the related equations ax2 + bx + c = 0.
Recall that an x-intercept is the x-coordinate of a
point where a graph crosses the x-axis.
At this point, y = 0.

the solutions of x2 – 8 = 0.
SOLUTION
The graph appears to intersect the x-axis
at (-4, 0) and (4, 0). By substituting x = -4

and x = 4 in x2 – 8 = 0, you can check that
2
-4 and 4 are solutions of the given equation.

ESTIMATING SOLUTIONS BY GRAPHING
The solutions of a quadratic equation in one variable x can be
estimated by graphing. Use the following steps:
STEP 1 Write the equation in the standard for ax2 +bx + c = 0
STEP 2 Sketch the graph of the related quadratic function
y = ax2 +bx + c
STEP 3 Estimate the values of the x-intercepts, if any.
The solutions, or roots, of ax2 +bx + c = 0 are the x-intercepts
of the graph.
