    The graph of a polynomial f(x) = (2x - 3)(x - 4)(x + 3) has x-intercepts at 3 values. What are they?

    The graph of a polynomial f(x) = (2x - 3)(x - 4)(x + 3) has x-intercepts at 3 values. What are they? A few things to note: X-intercepts are found when y (or f(x)) is 0. On the right side, we have 3 monomials. Therefore, y or f(x) could be 0 when any of these monomials is 0 The 3 monomials...

    Equation 2y+5x=40. Interprt the intercepts

    Equation 2y+5x=40. Interprt the intercepts Y intercept is when X = 0 2y + 5(0) = 40 2y = 40 Divide each side by 2 y = 20 X intercept is when Y = 0 2(0) + 5x = 40 5x = 40 Divide each side by 5 x = 8
