Answer:

(-8 , 0)

(10 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-8)^2 - 2(-8) - 80 = 0

(10)^2 - 2(10) - 80 = 0

then (-8 , 0) and (10 , 0) are x-intercepts Of the polynomial f

the others are not because (for instance):

(8)^2-2(8)-80 =

:)-32

What are the domain and range of the function? f(x) = ^3 square x - 3

DerKrebs [107]

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x - 3}$

The domain of a function are the values of $x$ that you can plug into the function $f(x)$ .

Values inside of a root must be non-negative, which means that $x - 3$ must be greater than or equal to zero. We can set up an equation to find the domain:

$x - 3 \geq 0$

$x \geq 3$

With this, we know the domain of the function is $[3, \inf)$ .

The range of a function are the values that $f(x)$ can have. Since the equation is a cube root, the value will always be non-negative, meaning the range of the function is $[0, \inf)$ .
