Answer:

x intercepts are at -2 and 2.

Explanation:

y=(x+2)(x-2) is the same as the function provided.

In this factored form, you can see where y = 0 >>> either x is -2 or 2.

Another way:

If you set y = 0, the equation becomes:

0 = x^2 - 4

4 = x^2

So either 2 or -2 satisfy this equation.

Or you can graph it, if graphing calcs are allowed.
