Graphical Intercept Identification

00:00 3 marks

Consider the polynomial function \(f(x) = (x-2)(x+3)(x-5)\). Using a graphing display calculator (GDC), identify the x-intercepts of the graph by reading the coordinates where the graph crosses the x-axis. List these intercepts in increasing order.

Hint Hint

Hint

Graph the function on your GDC and use the ‘zero’ or ‘root’ function to find where the curve intersects the x-axis. Ensure you read the x-values accurately.
