Question

A polynomial p is graphed. What could be the equation of p? Choose 1 answer:

Answer 1

Answer:

$\text{B. }p(x)=x(x-2)(2x-7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes of a function occur when the function crosses the x-axis. The function shown crossed the x-axis at $x=0$, $x=2$, and $x=3.5$. These values of $x$ should produce an output of 0 when plugged into the function.

Therefore, the equation of the function graphed is $\boxed{\text{B. }p(x)=x(x-2)(2x-7)}$
