Answer:
A: x= -1 or x=3
B: Since the quadratic equation has two real solutions, the graph of the quadratic equation intercepts the x axis at (-1,0) and (3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 -2x -3 =0
Factor
(x-3 )(x+1) =0
Using the zero product property
x-3 =0 x+1 =0
x=3 x=-1
The zeros are
(3,0) (-1,0)
It intersects the x axis at (3,0) (-1,0)
