Question

question 8
what is the x-intercept of the graph shown?
a) (-5,0)
b) (5,0)
c) (-2,0)
d) (2,0)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall x-intercept definition

The x-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the x - axis, so \(y = 0\) at this point.

Step2: Analyze the graph

Looking at the given graph, we find the point where the graph intersects the x - axis. The coordinates of the x - intercept are \((2,0)\) (since at this point \(y = 0\) and \(x=2\)).

Step3: Match with options

Among the options A) \((- 5,0)\), B) \((5,0)\), C) \((-2,0)\), D) \((2,0)\), the x - intercept we found matches option D.

Answer:

D) \((2,0)\)
