Answer:  The correct option is (C) f(x)=-2(x-2)(x-4).

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to select the correct equation such that its graph has x-intercepts at (2, 0) and (4, 0) and a y-intercept of (0, –16).

We know that the co-ordinates of the x-intercepts and the y-intercept will satisfy the equation.

So, we will check the given functions one by one.

Option (A) is

f(x)=-(x-2)(x-4).

Here,

f(2)=-(2-2)(2-4)=0,\\\\f(4)=-(4-2)(4-4)=0,\\\\f(0)=-(0-2)(0-4)=-8\neq -16.

So, this option is not correct.

Option (B) is

f(x)=-(x+2)(x+4).

Here,

f(2)=-(2+2)(2+4)=-24\neq 0.

So, this option is not correct.

Option (C) is

f(x)=-2(x-2)(x-4).

Here,

f(2)=-2(2-2)(2-4)=0,\\\\f(4)=-2(4-2)(4-4)=0,\\\\f(0)=-2(0-2)(0-4)=-16.

So, this option is correct.

Option (D) is

f(x)=-2(x+2)(x+4).

Here,

f(2)=-2(2+2)(2+4)=-48\neq 0.

So, this option is not correct.

Thus, The correct equation is f(x)=-2(x-2)(x-4).

Option (C) is correct.

f(x)= -2 (x - 2) ( x - 4)

if x=2 ⇒ f(x)=y=0 ⇒ graph of f(x) intercept x axis in (2,0)
if x=4 ⇒ f(x)=y=0 ⇒ graph of f(x) intercept x axis in (4,0)
if x=0 ⇒f(x)= -2 *(-2)*(-4)= - 16 ⇒ graph of f(x) intercept y axis in (0,- 16)

⇒ f(x)= -2 (x - 2) ( x - 4) is the answer

Which of the following is a monomial ? 9/x 11x2 20x9-7x 20x -14
irakobra [83]

Answer: 11x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose that the options are:

a) 9/x

b) 11x^2

c) 20x^9-7x

d) 20x -14

First, a polynomial is something like:

aₙx^n + .... + a₂*x^2 + a₁*x^1 + a₀*x^0

Where n is the degree of the polynomial,  the therms a are the coefficients, and aₙ is the leading coefficient.

Depending on the number of terms of the polynomial, it takes different names.

If we have only one term, it is called a monomial, if it has two terms, it is called a binomial, and so on.

So if we want to find a monomial, then we need to look at the options with only one term.

The options with only one term are options a and b.

But option a is a quotient (we have a negative power of x: 9/x = 9*x^-1)

So this is not a polynomial, then the correct option is option b.
