Given:


f(x)=x^3-12y^2+x-2y

Required:

We need to find the x-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute f(x)=0 and y =0 in the given equation to find the x-intercept.


0=x^3-12(0)+x-2(0)
0=x^3+x
0=x(x^2+1)
x=0,x^2+1=0
x=0,x^2=-1
x=0,x=\pm√(-1)
x=0,x=\pm i

The real x-intercepts is x =0.

Final answer:

The real x-intercepts is x =0.
