The intercepts can be read from the equation as (-2, 0), (0, 18), (3, 0). These define a triangle with a base of 5 and an altitude of 18, so the area is

... A = (1/2)·5·18 = 45 . . . . square units


_____

The x-intercepts are those values of x that make one or another of the factors be zero. (x-3) is zero when x=3; (x+2) is zero when x=-2.

The y-intercept is the value when x=0. That is (-3)²·(2) = 9·2 = 18.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

1.848 × 10^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

0.006 = 6 × 10^-3

3.08 = 3.08 × 10^0 (10^0 is equal to 1)

(6 × 10^-3) × (3.08 × 10^0) = 18.48 × 10^-3 = 1.848 × 10^-2
