Answer:

We can find the x intercepts by setting this equation equal to 0.

So we have:

0 = (x-4)(2x+3)

So we get:

x-4 = 0, x = 4

2x+3 = 0, x = -3/2

The x intercepts are 4 and -3/2

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=4 -3/2 =x

Explanation:

y = (x – 4)(2x + 3)

To find the x intercepts set y=0 and solve for x

0 = (x – 4)(2x + 3)

Using the zero product property

0= x-4 0= 2x+3

x=4 -3 = 2x

x=4 -3/2 =x
