I need to find the x-intercepts for the following equation: y=x^2+4.
Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
this is a "trick" question because there are no x-intercepts ___ the graph does not cross the x-axis

in order for there to be x-intercepts , y must equal zero
___ this means that x^2 must equal -4 (or less) , there are no real numbers that you can square to get negative values
