Question 97376: f%28x%29=x%5E2-2
I plotted the following numbers, but I cannot figure out the X Intercept and Y Intercept, so I am not sure if I got any of it correct so far.
X Y
0 -2
1 -1
-2 0

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
f(x) = x^2 -2
for the y-intercept
replace x by 0
y-intercept = -2
for x-intercept
replace y by 0
0= x^2 -2
x = +-+sqrt%282%29%29
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-5%2C+5%2C+x%5E2+-2%29
