1.) Students will solve and graph several quadratic equations. 2.) Students will write in their Mathematics Journals what they discovered about the roots of the equation and how roots compare to the x-coordinate when y = 0. They will determine that the root is the x-intercept. 

1.) Students will graph the equation y = x(x) - x - 2, mark the x-intercepts, and label the coordinates.
