to find x intercept set y = 0
y = 4 x 1 2 x + 1
0 = 4 x 1 2 x + 1
4 x 1 = 0 × ( 2 x + 1 )
4x-1=0
4x=1
x = 1 4 x intercept
to find y intercept set x = 0
y = 4 ( 0 ) 1 2 ( 0 ) + 1
y = 1 + 1
y = 1 y intercept
values of x for which f(x) <= 0, for this condition solve thetop part for <= 0
4 x 1 0 the bottom part cannot be zero but can be negative, so solve for < 0
4 x 1 2 x + 1 < 0
x 1 4 2 x < 1
x < 1 2 (at this point the function isundefined so we EXCLUDE this point in answer)
as you can see that the first answer already includes the secondone so your answer is
x 1 4 and x 1 2
