Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Quadratic Function</u>
The quadratic function can be expressed in the following form:
Where a is a real number different from 0, and x1, x2 are the roots or zeroes of the function.
From the conditions stated in the problem, we know
x_1=1+\sqrt{2}, \ x_1=1-\sqrt{2}
Substitute in the general formula above:
Operate the indicated product
To find the value of a, we use the y-intercept which is the value of y when x=0, thus
It follows that
Thus, the required quadratic function is
Or, equivalently
