f (x) = (x + 6) (x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you find the x-intercept of a factored equation for a graph, equate each factor to 0 and isolate "x".

Since there is only one x-intercept, there can be only one expression that you equate to 0. This cancels out options 1 and 3.

The x-intercept is the opposite of what is in the equation because in x-intercept form, the x-intercepts are the negatives of what is shown.

The negative of - 6 is + 6.

x + 6 = 0

x + 6 - 6 = 0 - 6

x = - 6

The y-coordinate will be 0 for an x-intercept,

(-6, 0)
