Question

question #5
true or false. the x - intercept of a rational function is determined be setting the factor in the numerator which does not reduce equal to zero.
true
false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The x - intercepts of a rational function \(y = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\) are found by setting the numerator \(f(x)=0\) (assuming no common factors that cancel out completely). When we set the non - reducible factor in the numerator equal to zero, we find the x - values where the function crosses or touches the x - axis.

Answer:

True
