Answer:
(- 2, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y = 2x² + 2x - 4
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0, that is
2x² + 2x - 4 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )
x² + x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 2)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
x- intercepts are x = - 2, x = 1, that is
(1, 0 ) and (- 2, 0 )
The other x- intercept is (- 2, 0 )
