Given the polynomial function
(a) Find x-intercepts (write your answer from the smallest to the largest number)
(b) Find y-intercept
Solution
f(x)=(x-3)(x+2)(x-4)
y = (x-3)(x+2)(x-4)
For x intercept put y =0
(x-3)(x+2)(x-4) = 0
x= 3, -2, 4
For y intercept put x = 0
y = (x-3)(x+2)(x-4)
y = -3*2*4 = -24
x-intercept = 3, -2, 4
y-intercept = -24
