document.write( "Question 1018039: Hello there, I have a quiz tomorrow and I was wondering if you could help me find the x and y intercepts of a function. (Like written in f(x) style) All the tutorials I found online only deal with the equation if it is in a y = mx+b form, but I can't figure out how to how to do it if it is in something like a f(x) = 3x + 3 (just an example). Would I just treat the f(x) like y or would I do something else? Thank you in Advance \n" ); document.write( "
