Question 12 • *Integrated Math II Full

What are the x-intercepts of the function f(x) = –x2 – x + 2?

Answer
A
(–2, 0) and (1, 0)
B
(2, 0) and (1, 0)
C
(–2, 0) and (-1, 0)
D
(0, -2) and (0, 1)

Explanation

The x-intercepts occur where f(x) = 0. Factor the function: −x² − x + 2 = −(x + 2)(x − 1), so its zeros are x = −2 and x = 1; the intercepts are (−2, 0) and (1, 0).
