Afunction f(x) has x-intercepts of –3 and –5. what is the constant term in the function?

f(x) = x2 + 8x + _

my first time using this so i just wanted to test it lol

Ahemmm having x-intercepts of -3 and -5.. ..well, that simply means, -3 and -5 are roots or solutions or zeros of the equation

it namely means x = -3 and x = -5, an x-intercept is when the graph touches the x-axis, at that point, the y-intercept is 0, so the point is (-3, 0) and (-5, 0)

if the roots are -3, and -5, then



if you have the zeros/x-intercepts/solutions of the polynomial, all you have to do is, get the factors, as above, and get their product, to get the parent original polynomial.
