The intercepts of the function g(x)=-3x^2+x+12/ x^2-4 are?
-----
x-intercepts::
Let y = 0 and solve for "x"::
Solve:: -3x^2+x+12 = 0
x = [-1 +- sqrt(1-4*-3*12)]/(-6)
x = [-1 +- sqrt(145)]/(-6)
x = 2.1736 or x = -2.8403
--------------------
y-intercepts::
Let x = 0 and solve for "y"::
y = 12/-4 = -3
