The x intercept is the point (or points) on a curve where y is zero. That's all. The y intercept is the point (or points) where x is zero. For #29, when y is zero you have 0 = 2x^3 - 4x^2 = x^2(x - 4). This curve has two x intercepts. You can probably do the rest now.
This is all pretty pointless in my opinion. Not algebra, which is a useful way to solve problems, but all the stupid vocabulary that mostly real mathematicians don't use, like "x-intercept". I did graduate work in math. Don't think I ever said "x-intercept" after high school.

Man my math teacher would be so disappointed that the easy stuff we did I already forgot.
But yea it's not linear.

29 is indeed not a linear equation since it has the 3 above the 2x.
x-intercept, set up to zero.
0= 2x (3) - 4x (2)
x-intercept= (0,0), (2,0)
Y-intercept, replace X with 0
y= 0 - 0
y-intercept= (0,0)
So the X and y intercepts are (2,0)if u can't solve the problem dont worry.. they won't become very useful in the future anyway haha
Notice how no girls responded to this. Girls hate math.
Hope it helps!
best of luck😊Been years since I've done any of this math but always reduce math to its most basics to solve it. So what is 2x3 - 4x2... 2*x*x*x - 4*x*x... can you solve it now?
To find y intercept, put x=0 and for x intercept put y=0 and solve equation simultaneus until coordinates obtain. Thnx for asking.
This is really easy. I can't believe this can be difficult for someone who is 18 years old.
there are multiple ways to do it, the easiest is with derivatives.
replace for each of the variables with 0 to get the other ones intercept... easy
Punch it into a graphing calculator.
Generally one would use math.
hope this helps!sorry I forgot all this over the summer
what is the answer by the way
2x^3=2x^2×2x^2
