Write the equation of the graph shown below in factored form.

the graph starts at the bottom left and continues up through the x axis at negative two to a maximum around y equals eight and goes back down through the x axis at one to a minimum around y equals negative four and back up through the x axis at three.

Doobie · Answer 1

y = (x + 2) (x - 1) (x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

For each x-intercept (r) the corresponding factor is (x - r). For x-intercepts - 2, 1, 3, the factors are ... (x+2), (x-1), (x-3). Then the equation is ...

y = (x + 2) (x - 1) (x - 3)
