Answer:

-3, 1

Explanation:

The vertical scale of the graph is f(x). So, f(x) = 0 is the x-axis. Where the graph crosses the x-axis, the value of f(x) is 0.

The x-axis is labeled on alternate lines. Those labels are sufficient to tell you that each grid line represents one unit. The curve intersects the x-axis 3 units to the left of the vertical axis, at x = -3, at 1 unit to the right of the vertical axis, at x = 1.

The values of x where f(x) = 0 are -3 and 1.
