Given: The function below


f(x)=(3x+30)/(25x^2-49)

To determine: All x-intercepts of the given function

The x-intercept is a point where the graph crosses the x-axis

We would substitute the function equal to zero and find the value of x


\begin{gathered} f(x)=(3x+30)/(25x^2-49),f(x)=0 \\ \text{Therefore} \\ (3x+30)/(25x^2-49)=0 \\ \text{cross}-\text{ multiply} \\ 3x+30=0 \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} 3x=-30 \\ (3x)/(3)=(-30)/(3) \\ x=-10 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the coordinate of the x-intercept is (-10, 0)
