Find x-and y-intercepts of given function.
y = (x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 1)
y = (x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 1)
-
(x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 1)=0
x-3=0; x+2=0; x+1=0
x=3; x=-2; x=-1
y=(0-3)(0+2)(0+1)
y=-6
x-3=0; x+2=0; x+1=0
x=3; x=-2; x=-1
y=(0-3)(0+2)(0+1)
y=-6
-
For x axis intercept y = 0
0 = (x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 1)
x = 3, -2, -1
For y axis intercept x = 0
y = (-3)(2)(1) = -6
0 = (x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 1)
x = 3, -2, -1
For y axis intercept x = 0
y = (-3)(2)(1) = -6
-
x intercept: (0,-1) & (3,0) y intercept: (0,-6)
-
(3,0)(-1,0)(-2,0)
(0,-6)
(0,-6)
