Question

What is the equation of a quadratic function that has zeros -6 and -2?

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=x^{2} +8x+12$  is the quadratic function.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that -6 and -2 are the zeros. So, they are both equal to x.

x = -6 and x = -2

Add them to x.

(x + 6) (x + 2)

Now, multiply the two binomials together.

$x^{2} +6x+8x+12$

Combine like terms.

$y=x^{2} +8x+12$

$y=x^{2} +8x+12$ is the answer.
