Do you mean the x-intercepts where y = 0? That would require solving for roots of the equation x^3 - 2x - 6 = 0
There is only one root, and it is at x = 2.1799810721581574...
Basically, you have to get it by trial and error, graphing or using a very long procedure that would fill two pages. I used a website for solving cubics. Google: cubic equation solver for examples.
The y-intercept, where x = 0, is at
F(x) = -6
What are the intercepts of F(x)=x^3-2x-6 and how do you find the answer?
HELP!
