Since the parabola is connecting the points, it means that the points given are on the parabola or that the points are solutions of the parabola. Thus, when we substitute the points into the function, we should end up with the correct y-value.


To find the correct choice, let's test a point. An easy point to test I believe would be (-3, 0) because we should be getting 0 as a y-value. Let's test:

A. (- 3 - 3)(3 + 4) = -42

B. (-3 + 3)(-3 - 4) = 0

C. (-3 + 2)(-3 - 4) = 7

D. (-3)(-3 + 12) = -27


We can see that Choice B is the correct function, because it produces 0 when we substitute x = - 3. Thus, Choice B, or (x + 3)(x - 4) is the answer.

The equation of the line with slope
yulyashka [42]

The linear equation in slope-intercept form can be written as:

y = 5*x + 6

<h3>How to find the linear equation?</h3>

A general linear equation in the slope-intercept form is:

y = a*x + b

Where x is the independent variable, y is the dependent variable, and a and b are constant real numbers, such that a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here we know that the slope is 5, then we can replace a by 5.

And we know that the y-intercept is (0, 6), it means that b = 6.

Then the linear equation in slope-intercept form can be written as:

y = 5*x + 6
