Someone post it here when you have the paper or solutions. I want to look at this bitch again. May as well, I have nothing better to do on the weekend. Lol

In the graphing question - why does the graph only have 1 x-intercept?

just substitute back to the original equation : i tried wolfram and i got this -7.105427357601×10^-15 but alternative form is 0. maybe it is a root.
Hermes1 already posted substitution. You have still not shown your substitution leading to nonzero. Either you made an error maybe because you used a wrong polynomial or you have problems with your algebra - in which case you need to address.

Edit

don't blame stupid calculator!

the graph is increasing, so at x = -1.2, y = 0
that means that for x > -1.2, y > 0 and if x < -1.2, y < 0
therefore it will never hit x axis again so 1 x -int

sweet did that aswell except showed it with derivatives.. is that the correct approach?

i didnt think about substitution because it will be too much working. so i tried perfect square and all those methods that i know, and putted into my stupid calculator, they all gave me this stupid small number, and these stupid small numbers make me stupidly stress.

but i'm okay now:)

i said there was no maximum or minimum point, hence only one inflexion point at x=0 therefore it only hits it the x-intercept once.
