Question

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

Answer 1

When graphed:

Answer 2

So what are the x- intercepts?

Answer 3

U hv equation
y=(x-2)(x-3)(x+5)

Answer 4

what about solving for x in each of those 3 cases?

Answer 5

Put y=0 in ur given equation
x=?

Answer 6

X axis means y=0

Answer 7

U know either
x-2=0
Or x-3=0
Or x+5=0

Answer 8

U will get 3 values of x=?

Answer 9

solve for x
for x -2=0 , x-3=0, and x+5=0

Answer 10

If x-2=0
x=?

Answer 11

Or x-3=0
x=?

Answer 12

Or x+5=0
x=?

Answer 13

2,3,-5 I guess

Answer 14

The steps of @UsukiDoll @shamim are very much right...

Answer 15

^_^

Answer 16

There's only 1 x-intercept. x=30.

Answer 17

Oops, y-intercept.

Answer 18

x intercept is (-5,0), (2,0), (3,0)
