Which of the following best describes how you can determine the x-intercepts of a polynomial function without graphing?(1 point)

A. Find the degree of the polynomial function.
B. Find the degree of the polynomial function.
C. Find the value of the function when x equals zero.
D. Find the zeros of the polynomial function.

1 answer

The best option that describes how to determine the x-intercepts of a polynomial function without graphing is:

D. Find the zeros of the polynomial function.

The x-intercepts occur where the function equals zero, which corresponds to finding the values of x that make the polynomial equal to zero (the zeros of the polynomial).
