x intercepts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the question your asking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

identify the x-intercepts in the graph y = 3x2 + 19x – 40..sorry connection was slow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The Def'n of the x-intercept is the points where the y-value is zero. So set y to 0 and solve for x

OpenStudy (precal):

use the quadratic formula

OpenStudy (jennychan12):

quadratic formula: \[x = \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{ 2a }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Quadratic formula for 0 = ax^2 + bx + c\[x= {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\]
