Answer:

Explanation:

So given the three bits of information you can conclude a couple of things. The end behavior towards the right should be increasing and since there is only two turning points this means it was previously going down but had a turning point and starting going up, and before that it was going up and then started going down, those will be the two turning points. So on the left side it should be decreasing and the right side it should be increasing. The last peace of information tells you that at the second turning point, should be equal to 250k when it turned back up OR the y-intercept is 250k. Given all this information the answer should be the first graph in the first picture
