Answer:

A, C, E, and F.

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept, simply plug in 0 for x since y-intercepts are (0,y):


f(0)=((0-3)(0+4)(0-1))/((0+2)(0-12)) =((-3)(4)(-1))/((2)(-12)) =(12)/(2(-12))=-1/2


(0,-1/2)

To find the x-intercepts, plug in 0 for y since x-intercepts have the format (x,0):


0=((x-3)(x+4)(x-1))/((x+2)(x-12))


0=(x-3)(x+4)(x-1)


x=3, -4, 1


(-4,0), (1,0), (3,0)

The correct choices are:

A, C, E, and F.
