The x-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis, meaning that the y-coordinate is 0. From the given options, only option C has two points with y-coordinate 0 (0 = 0), which are (-5,0) and (4,0). Therefore, option C is the best choice. The x-intercepts occur when y=0. When we set y=0 in the equation, we get x= -5 and x=4. Therefore, the x-intercepts are (-5,0) and (4,0).
