The EASIEST way to do it, is actually start with the form a(x-b)(x-c) or intercept form since you have intercepts

x ints at (0,0) and (4,0) so y=ax(x-4)

sub in (2,-4) it doesn't really matter whether or not its a vertex

-4=2a(2-4)

a=1

so y=x(x-4)

expand to get y=x^2-4x which is y=ax^2+bx+c form where a=1, b=-4, c=0

Mnenie [13.5K]

Assuming the interest is simple interest, as opposed to compound interest,

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount}\\\\
A=P(1+rt)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$3600\\
r=rate\to 9\%\to \frac{9}{100}\to &0.09\\
t=years\to &25
