Good morning people! I am ready to give medals for help...

You guys sure it's not like this:
\[\Large f(x)=\frac{ x^2-13x-4 }{ x^2+12\color{red}x-2 }\]
?

oops you are right terenz, it is, my oops
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Well, that's good. Carry on, you guys ^_^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
sorry if for the boo boo, it's the one above
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whoever helps will get a medal
OpenStudy (anonymous):
this is the problem
f(x)=x^2−13x−4 divided by x^2+12x−2

well my judgement is that when you've got the find y intercept you solve the equation for
f(x) where x is 0 so:
y=f(0)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that replace 0 where the x's are?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok wouldn't I have to factor first, it doesn't look like I can here
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you don't need any factorisation you just place 0 where x is

ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
0, 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I hope you're saying y=2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=0, y=2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

you got a well deserved medal if
OpenStudy (anonymous):
must remember to be exact and take my time when doing math...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thanks if! ;)
