To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following function:
2. You can rewrite it as following:
3. The line intersects the y-axis when , therefore:
4. The line intersects the x-axis when :
5. Now plot the points (0, 0.5) and (1,0) in a graph , as you can see in the figure attached.
Therefore, the answer is: The points of intersection are (0, 0.5) and (1,0).
