Answer:
f(n)=(n-7)(n+5)


Explanation:

1. You can rewrite the quadratic equation as following:


f(n)=n^(2)-2n-35

2. To factor it, you must find two number that when you add them you obtain -2 and when you multiply them you obtain -35. These would be 5 and -7.

3. Therefore, you can write the function in the following intercept form:


f(n)=(n-7)(n+5)
