If the question is: "in which point does the function intercept the y-axis?", the answer is: in no points. This is because, if this point would exist, its x-coordinate has to be 0, but it is impossible to give this value to x because 0 makes the fraction a nonsense (it is impossible to divide for 0).

If the question is: "in which points does the function intercept the x-axis?", the answer is: in all those point whose y-coordinate is 0.

So:

(x^2-49)/(7x^4)=0rArrx^2=49rArrx=+-7.

The points are: (-7,0)and(7,0).
