Answer:
x = - 3, x = - 2
Explanation:
Given
y = x² + 5x + 6
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is
x² + 5x + 6 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
The x- intercepts in coordinate form are
(- 3, 0 ) and (- 2, 0 )
