Question

What are the x-intercepts for the graph of y = 3 (x - 1)(x + 6)?

Answer 1

Answer:

(1,0) and (-6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1=0

x=1

x+6=0

x=-6

Answer 2

Answer:

The x intercepts are 1, -6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3 (x - 1)(x + 6)

To find the x intercepts, set y = 0

0 = 3 (x - 1)(x + 6)

Using the zero product property

x-1 =0    x+6 =0

x=1    x=-6

The x intercepts are 1, -6
