How would you explain the relationship between the real zero(s) of the function and x-intercept(s) of the graph? Since the graph crosses the x-axis at x = – 2, the function has a real zero of x = – 2. Since the graph never crosses the x-axis, the function has no real zeros. Since the graph eventually crosses the x-axis, the function has a real zero. Since the graph crosses the y-axis at 1/9, the function results in a real zero of x = 1/9?.
