Question

What are the x intercepts for the graph of y= 3 ( x +1 )(x-6)

Answer 1

(-1,0) and (6,0)

- Just got it right!:)

Answer 2

The x intercepts occur when you set the factors equal to 0. x+1=0 & x-6=0 gives you the x-intercepts. x+1=0 -> x=-1. x-6=0 -> x=6. Therefore, -1 & 6 are your x intercepts
