Question

Answer 1

Set y = 0

Answer 2

Then solve!

Answer 3

thank you!

Answer 4

Np

Answer 5

wait but then the equation doesnt equal itself so does that mean that there are no x-intercepts?

Answer 6

What do you mean doesn't equal itself?

Answer 7

when you do (3/x-5)=0 you get 8=0 which cant happen so then there isnt any x-intercepts

Answer 8

Oh right, I see what you mean, and yup you're right! No, x - intercepts!

Answer 9

ok thank you!
