Question

Find the x-intercept of the rational function.

A (-5,0)
B (0,-5)
C (0, -1)
D (-1, 0)

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

The x -intercept is 'shorthand' for x - AXIS intercept

where the graph crosses the x - axis

this will always have a ZERO value for the 'y'- coordinate

looking at the graph this point is -5,0

Answer 2

(-5,0)

Explanation:

The x intercept is where it crosses the x axis

It crosses the x axis where x = -5

The y value is 0

(-5,0)
