Q. Determine the x x -intercepts of the following equation.\newline(x+5)(x+3)=y (-x+5)(x+3)=y \newline(0,15) (0,15) \newline(5,0) (5,0) and (3,0) (-3,0) \newline(0,5) (0,5) and (0,3) (0,-3) \newline(0,15) (0,-15) \newline(15,0) (15,0) \newline(5,0) (5,0) and (3,0) (3,0)
  1. Given Equation: We are given the equation (x+5)(x+3)=y(-x+5)(x+3)=y. To find the x-intercepts, we need to set yy to 00 and solve for xx.\newline(x+5)(x+3)=0(-x+5)(x+3) = 0
  2. Zero Product Property: Now we have a product of two factors equal to zero. According to the zero product property, if the product of two factors is zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero. So we set each factor equal to zero and solve for xx.\newlineFirst factor: x+5=0-x + 5 = 0\newlineSecond factor: x+3=0x + 3 = 0
  3. Solve First Factor: Solve the first factor for xx:x+5=0-x + 5 = 0x=5-x = -5x=5x = 5
  4. Solve Second Factor: Solve the second factor for xx:x+3=0x + 3 = 0x=3x = -3
  5. Final X-Intercepts: We have found the x-intercepts to be x=5x = 5 and x=3x = -3. These are the points where the parabola crosses the x-axis, so the coordinates of the x-intercepts are (5,0)(5,0) and (3,0)(-3,0).
