x-intercept:  Set y= 0 and find x.  Then 2x^2-3x-20= 0.  You must find the roots; there will be two real, unequal roots.  The x-intercepts will look like (a,0) and (b,0), where a and be are your two real, unequal roots.

y-intercept:  set x=0.  Then 2(0)^2 - 3(0) - 20 = -20.  The y-int. is (0,-20).
