The factored form of the expression is (2x-1)(2x+5) and the x-intercept of the function is 1/4 and -5/2 respectively
<h3>Solving quadratic equation</h3>
Quadratic equations are equations that has a leading degree of 2. Given the quadratic equation below;
y = 4x^2 + 8x -5
The x-intercept is the point where the value of y is zero.
Factorize the resulting expression
y = 4x^2 + 8x -5
y = 4x^2 - 2x + 10x -5
y = 2x(2x-1)+5(2x -1)
y = (2x-1)(2x+5)
The factored form of the expression is (2x-1)(2x+5)
Equate the given factors to zero
(2x-1)(2x+5) = 0
Equate the factors to zero
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/4
Similarly
2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2
Hence the x-intercept of the function is 1/4 and -5/2 respectively
C) For the end behavior, as the value of x tends to infinity, hence the y-values tends to infinity
D) In order to plot the graph, the x-intercepts of the will be plotted on the graph and then curve will be created.
