Q:

Write the equation of the graph shown below in factored form.1. f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 1)(x + 4)2. f(x) = (x + 3)(x − 1)(x − 4)3. f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 1)(x + 4)4. f(x) = (x − 3)(x − 1)(x − 4)

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:2. f(x) = (x + 3)(x − 1)(x − 4)Step-by-step explanation:The roots of this polynomial graph are the x-intercepts.These are x=-3, x=1, x=4These implies that the factors of the function are:(x+3), (x-1), and (x-4)The factored form is given as:[tex]f(x) = (x + 3)(x - 1)(x - 4)[/tex]Therefore the second option is correct.
