Please help with question 1
1 answer:
Answer:
y = (5/9)(x -2)(x +6)
Step-by-step explanation:
When a polynomial has a zero (p, 0), it has a factor (x -p).
The given zeros mean the factored form of the equation will be ...
y = a(x -2)(x +6)
The given point will mean the value of 'a' will satisfy ...
(x, y) = (3, 5)
5 = a(3 -2)(3 +6) = 9a
a = 5/9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of 'a'
The factored equation is ...
y = (5/9)(x -2)(x +6)
