Find the x and y intercepts of the given function?
f(x) = 5x^2 - 2x - 4.
Can someone help?

the y-intercept would be the constant (c)
factor and solve for the for the x-intercepts.
If you can't factor it, use quadratic formula.

x - intercept when x=0:
5(0) - 2(0) - 4 = -4
Therefore x-intercept is -4.
y-intercept when F(x) = 0:
0 = 5x^2 - 2x - 4
Use the quadratic formula to find x.
5(0) - 2(0) - 4 = -4
Therefore x-intercept is -4.
y-intercept when F(x) = 0:
0 = 5x^2 - 2x - 4
Use the quadratic formula to find x.

for x intercepts put y=0
for y intercepts put x=0
for y intercepts put x=0
