Problem: Find the \(x\)-intercepts of the graph of \(y=x^{2}+2 x-24\) Incorrect Answer: \(0=(x-6)(x+4)\) $$ \begin{array}{rrr} x-6=0 & \text { or } & x+4=0 \\ +6+6 & & -4=-4 \\ \hline x+0=6 & x+0=-4 \\ x=6 & x=-4 \end{array} $$ The \(x\)-intercepts are \((6,0)\) and \((-4,0)\).
\(y=x^{2}-16\)
Wal-Mart advertised a Thanksgiving dinner for a family of eight for under \(\$ 20\), not including tax. The dinner included a 12 -pound turkey at \(\$ 0.40\) per pound, three cans of vegetables at \(\$ 0.50\) each, 2 lb of sweet potatoes at \(\$ 0.25\) per pound, two cans of cranberries at \(\$ 0.88\) each, one 12 -count package of brown and serve rolls for \(\$ 0.75\), two packages of stuffing mix at \(\$ 1.50\) each, and one pumpkin roll cake at \(\$ 5.50\). In Idaho, the sales tax on food is \(6.5 \%\). Find the total cost of the dinner, including tax. Round to the nearest hundredth.
