A polynomial function can be written as (x - 2)(x - 3)(x + 5). What are the x-intercepts of the graph of this function? (2, 0), (3, 0), (-5, 0) (-2, 0), (-3, 0), (5, 0) (2, 0), (3, 0), (5, 0) (-2, 0), (-3, 0), (-5, 0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the polynomial function given is a cubic polynomial. if you multiply it, you will know that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a cubic polynomial crosses the x axis at 3 points

OpenStudy (rhystic):

just plug in the x coordinates for the sets of coordinates if the three sets satisfy the function (y = 0) then youre good.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer is 1

solve all parenthesis for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2,0), (3,0) and (-5,0)
