Answer:
g(x) = (x + 2)(x − 1)(x − 2)
I picked the first one, because why not. :)
<u>End behavior.</u> This is a positive function; there are no negatives next to any of the xs. There are 3 xs, so it's a cubic; a positive cubic has a down-up end behavior.
<u>Y-intercept.</u> We can either graph this on the calculator/online or work it out algebraically. Multiply together the constants: +2 * -1 = -2, -2 * -2 = 4. So the y-intercept is at y = 4. (0,4). I've also attached the graph.
<u>Zeros / x-intercept.</u> This is really simple: set g(x) equal to 0, separate these three parenthesis (x+2) (x-1) and (x-2) into three equations by the Zero Product Property.
x+2 = 0
x = -2
x-1 = 0
x = 1
x-2 = 0
x = 2
So the function has three zeros at (-2,0) (1,0) and (2,0).
