Question

What are the x-intercept(s) of the graph of y − x2 = 11x + 30?

(−5, 0) and (6, 0)

(5, 0) and (−6, 0)

(−5, 0) and (−6, 0)

(5, 0) and (6, 0)

Answer 1

you have a curve

y = x^2 + 11x + 30

find the factors of 30 that add to 11

Answer 2

(5, 0) and (−6, 0)? @campbell_st

Answer 3

what do you mean I have a curve?

Answer 4

then solve x^2 + 11x + 30 = 0

(x +5)(x + 6) = 0

then x = -5, -6

these are the intercepts

the graph is a curve... specifically... a parabola...

Answer 5

Oh, so it would be (−5, 0) and (−6, 0)

Answer 6

yes
