SOLUTION: Hi! I need help finding the x-intercept of this equation {{{ (x^3-6x^2+11x-6)/(x^4-1) }}} I found the y-intercept by setting x=0 but I can't figure out how to solve it when I set

Question 669540: Hi! I need help finding the x-intercept of this equation I found the y-intercept by setting x=0 but I can't figure out how to solve it when I set y=o. I thought I had figured it out when I factored the numerator as (x-1)(x-2)(x-3) and found that the intercepts should be (0,2) and (0,3) but the graph doesn't show any intercepts at all. So clearly I'm doing something wrong. I hope you can help! Thanks

Hi,

 yes.  Good work.

grapH does cross at x = 2  and x = 3 (a little down and back up going on)

Note:  x = 1 is a vertical symptote (x= 1  makes the denominator ZERO)
