You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For any function f(x):
\n" ); document.write( "Crosses x-axis, x-intercept, is described as any P(x,0)
\n" ); document.write( "Plug:
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = -x^2 + 5x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "0 = -x^2 + 5x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "0 = (-x + 3)(x - 2)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3 and x = 2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"graph%28300%2C300%2C-5%2C5%2C-5%2C5%2C-x%5E2+%2B+5x+-+6%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = -2x^3 - 2x^2 + 3x - 2
\n" ); document.write( "Just to make this as simple for me as possible, we are going to use the ol' graphical sense.
\n" ); document.write( "x = -2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"graph%28300%2C300%2C-5%2C5%2C-5%2C5%2C-2x%5E3+-+2x%5E2+%2B+3x+-+2%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
