- $$q ( x ) = - x ^ { 2 } + 18$$

• A) \(x\)-intercepts: \(( 18,0 ) , ( - 18,0 )\);
• \(y\)-intercept: \(( 0,3 \sqrt { 2 } )\)
• B) \(x\)-intercept: \(( 0,18 )\);
• \(y\)-intercepts: \(( 3 \sqrt { 2 } , 0 ) , ( - 3 \sqrt { 2 } , 0 )\)
• C) \(x\)-intercept: none;
• \(y\)-intercept: \(( 0,18 )\)
• D) \(x\)-intercepts: \(( 3 \sqrt { 2 } , 0 ) , ( - 3 \sqrt { 2 } , 0 )\);
• \(y\)-intercept: \(( 0,18 )\)
