Write a quadratic function f whose zeros are 3 and 8

The standard form of a quadratic equation is: ax²+bx+c=0, and it is represented with a polynomial of degree 2, that's why it is also called "Equation of degree 2".

1. So, if 3 and 8 are zeros of the quadratic function, then they are factors of it. Therefore, you have:

(x+3) (x+8) = 0

2. When you write it in the standard form, you have:

x²+11x+24=0

a=1

b=11

c=24
