the y intercept is the constant term on the x side
-6 * -2 which is 12
we can foil this out to see that
(x-6) (x-2)
x^2 -6x -2x+12
x^2 -8x+12
so the y intercept is (0,12)
The true statements are:
2 - we can tell this by looking at the far right of the graph, as the slope is going downwards, therefore the leading coefficient must be negative
3 - this is a cubic, meaning its degree is 3
6 - by looking at the graph, we can see that there are 3 points where it cuts the x axis, hence 3 real zeros
7 - even multiplicity is where the curve "bounces off" the x axis and does not cross it. This curve have no zeros with even multiplicity
Hope this helped!
The answer is C because its the only touching the circle on each end
