distributing ___ 7x + x^2 - 3x = 0 ___ x^2 + 4x = 0

factoring ___ x(x + 4) = 0

x = 0

x + 4 = 0 ___ x = -4

Hi
Solving for x
7x%2Bx%28x-3%29=0
x^2 + 4x = 0
x(x+4) = 0
x = 0
(x+4) = 0
x = -4
x-intercepts: When (f(x) = 0
0=7x%2Bx%28x-3%29 |found x values above
Pt(0,0) and Pt(-4,0) are the x-intercepts
