Question

Find all x-intercepts of the function. Express your answer as a list of x-values.

Answer 1

Answer:

$x=0$ and $x=\pm\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=x^5-3x^3$

$0=x^5-3x^3$

$x^5-3x^3=0$

$x^3(x^2-3)=0$

$x^3=0$ and $x^2-3=0$

$x=0$ and $x=\pm\sqrt{3}$

See the graph for a visual of the x-intercepts.
