Learn to find the x and y intercepts of a rational function

The video tutorial explains how to find the X and Y intercepts of a function. It begins with a trick for finding the X intercept by setting the numerator to zero and proceeds to demonstrate this with examples. The tutorial then covers finding the Y intercept by setting X to zero and using shortcuts to simplify the process. The video concludes with a discussion on using shortcuts for efficient problem-solving.
