Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Y- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the y- axis.
X- intercept is a point where any graph crosses the x- axis.
This means the coordinate of the point of intersection will always have the x point as 0. So any point of the form ( 0, y) is the y- intercept. Any point of the form (x,0) is the x- intercept.
Given point are :
(0,-6) : y intercept
(-2,0) : x intercept
(-6,0): x- intercept
(0,-2): y- intercept
In the first case we'd subtract 1 from both sides, obtaining |x-1|<14.
In the second case we'd also subtract 1 from both sides, and would obtain
|x-1|>14.
What would the graphs look like?
In the first case, the graph would be on the x-axis with "center" at x=1. From this center count 14 units to the right, and then place a circle around that location (which would be at x=15). Next, count 14 units to the left of this center, and place a circle around that location (which would be -13). Draw a line segment connecting the two circles. Notice that all of the solutions are between -13 and +15, not including these endpoints.
In the second case, x has to be greater than 15 or less than -13. Draw an arrow from x=1 to the left, and then draw a separate arrow from 15 to the right. None of the values in between are solutions.

We can solve this equation by using the Square Root Method.
First, take the square root of each side of the equation:
(x-8)^2 = 144 becomes x-8 = 12
Then add 8 to both sides.
x=20
