Question

Moving from left to right:
- The curve passes from quadrant 3 to quadrant 4 to quadrant 1.
- In quadrant 3, the curve trends up gradually to the y axis.
- In quadrant 4, the curve trends up gradually to the point (6 comma 0).
- In quadrant 1, the curve trends up sharply.
As x decreases, the curve approaches the line y equals negative 2.
The curve passes through the following points:
- (5 comma negative four thirds)
- (6 comma 0)

What is the x-coordinate of the x-intercept of the graph shown?

Accepted Answer

The correct answer is 6 . An x -intercept of a graph is a point on the graph where it intersects the x -axis, or where the value of y is 0 . The graph shown intersects the x -axis at the point 6 , 0 . Therefore, the x -coordinate of the x -intercept of the graph shown is 6 .
