Expand the polynomial and simplify: 12a^2-4(1-2a)^2+8

An equation representing lyle’s hedge-trimming business is a = 12n - 300 where a is the amount of profit or loss in dollars and n is the number of hedges trimmed. how would the graph of lyle’s business change if the equation a = 10n - 300 represented his business? the graph would be flatter. the graph would be steeper. the graph would start closer to the origin. the graph would start lower on the y-axis.

Write the equation for the parabola that has x− intercepts (−2,0) and (4,0) and y− intercept (0,4).
