Problema Solution
factor g(x) into three linear factors. by setting each factor equal to zero, find the three x-intercepts. what do you notice about two of the x-intercepts?
g(x)=x^3-4x^2-3x+18
Answer provided by our tutors
x^3-4x^2-3x+18 = (x - 3)^2(x + 2)
(x - 3)^2 = 0
x = 3
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
The x-intercepts are (3, 0) and (-2. 0).
