15 points ! precalc question with graph


x-intercepts are where the graph crosses the x-axis. These are (-1, 0) and (3, 0) from the graph.
y-intercepts are where the graph crosses the y-axis. This is (0, -3) from the graph.
By definition, we have to:
1) the cut points with the horizontal axis are given by pairs ordered in the following way:
[tex] (x, 0) [/tex]
2) the cutting points with the vertical axis are given by pairs ordered in the following way:
[tex] (0, y) [/tex]
Therefore, using the definition we have:
Cut with the horizontal axis:
[tex] (- 1, 0) [/tex]
[tex] (3, 0) [/tex]
Cut with vertical axis:
[tex] (0, -3) [/tex]
Answer:
option 2
