Question

Please Help Me? So I'm stuck on finding Roots for Graphs, it's Pig Latin to me.... So here we go.

The points plotted below are on the graph of a polynomial. Which of the following x-values best approximate roots of the polynomial?

http://media.apexlearning.com/Images/200708/27/2fa52dba-4a3b-48a5-8588-a5130a7a58cb.gif
A. x = -0.4
B. x = -1.4
C. x = 0
D. x = -4.6
E. x = 1.4
F. x = 2.4

If you could explain how you got this in detail That would be awesome

Answer 1

basically the roots are the x values when the y value = 0

Answer 2

if you already have the graph read the x-values when the y value is 0

Answer 3

So.... If the the Y is zero, on the graph, look at where the X is and that is the answer?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

So the answer is 1.4 and -1.4?

Answer 6

I can't see the graph you have

Answer 7

Did that link not work in the question?

Answer 8

do you have the polynomial?

Answer 9

no

Answer 12

Err... hold on

Answer 13

it really does not matter. what is important is you know how to find it

Answer 14

There is the graph. based of what you told me, I think 1.4 and -1.4 are the answers

Answer 15

b and f
-1.4 and 2.4

Answer 16

Oh I see now!!! Thank you So Much!!!!

Answer 17

those are actually on the line y = 0

Answer 18

Thank You!!!

Answer 19

you are welcome.
