How do you graph # 12(x+5)=(y-8)^2#? Algebra Quadratic Equations and Functions Quadratic Functions and Their Graphs 1 Answer SCooke Feb 1, 2018 Set it up in the form #y = f(x)#, calculate some points, and plot it on graph paper. Explanation: #12(x + 5) = (y−8)^2# #12x + 60 = y^2 -16y +64# #x = (y^2 -16y + 64 - 60)/12# #x = y^2/12 - 4/3y + 1/3# Answer link Related questions What are the important features of the graphs of quadratic functions?
