Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Positive x-intercept = + sqrt(3)

Negative x-intercept = - sqrt(3)


Discussion:

Generally, the x-intercept of a function g(x) occurs where g(x) = 0. In our case this is

g(x) = 0 =>

3x^2 - 9 = 0 => (add 9 to both sides of the equation)

3 x^2 = 9 => (divide both sides by 3)

x^2 = 9/3 = 3 =>

x = +\- sqrt (3)

Positive x-intercept = + sqrt(3)

Negative x-intercept = - sqrt(3)



Thank you,

MrB
