Find the x and y intercepts of the following function. g(x)=x^2-5x-84

Mathematics

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the function

g(0) = 0 - 0 - 84 = - 84 ← y- intercept

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is

x² - 5x - 84 = 0

To factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 84) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

The factors are - 12 and + 7, since

- 12 × 7 = - 84 and - 12 + 7 = - 5, thus

(x - 12)(x + 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x- intercepts are x = - 7 and x = 12
