Question

Find the x-intercept of the function: f(x) = 6x - 2. Round answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. A) (0.39, 0) B) (1.00, 0) C) (2.58, 0) D) (3.00, 0)

Answer 1

The function f(x) = 6^(x)-2 has an x-intercept at approximately (0.39, 0)
f(x) = 0 = 6^(x) - 2
2 = 6^(x)
log(2)/log(6)= x
x = 0.3868 = 0.39
The answer to this question is A) (0.39, 0).
