what can you say about the function that generated the following table of values? X Y -4 -0.906 -2 -0.625 0 0.5 2 5 4 23 a. NOT ENOUGH INFO B. NO X-INTERCEPTS C. MORE THAN ONE X-INTERCEPT D.EXACTLY ONE X-INTERCEPT

OpenStudy (pythagoras123):

Not enough info. The x-intercept is defined as a point lying on the x-axis, by logical extension, the y-coordinate of that point will be 0. The table of values shown in your question does not list a point with a y-coordinate of 0, hence it is unknown if an x-intercept exists.

OpenStudy (rawritskai):

ahh okay i see now, thank you so much

OpenStudy (evoker):

If the function is continuous there is at least one between -2 and 0

OpenStudy (pythagoras123):

Yes but the question does not give information on whether the function is continuous
