On a coordinate plane, a curved line with a minimum value of (1.5, negative 1) and a maximum value of (negative 1.5, 13), crosses the x-axis at (negative 3, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, 6).

Which lists all of the x-intercepts of the graphed function?

(0, 6)
(1, 0) and (2, 0)
(1, 0), (2, 0), and (–3, 0)
(1, 0), (2, 0), (–3, 0), and (0, 6)

Answer:

Third option: (1, 0), (2, 0), and (–3, 0)

Explanation:

The x-intercepts are the points at which the graph of the function crosses the x-axis.

By reading the question, we can see that:

"... crosses the x-axis at (negative 3, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 0)..."

So the x-intercepts are:

(-3, 0)

(1, 0)

(2, 0)

Then the correct option is the third one:

"(1, 0), (2, 0), and (–3, 0)"
