Answer: FIRST OPTION.

Explanation:

The Intercept form of the equation of a parabola is:


f(x) = a(x - p)(x - q)

Where "p" and "q" are x-intercepts; a positive value of "a" indicates that the parabola is concave up and a negative a value of "a" indicates that it is concave down.

Given the function:


f(x)=(x+3)(x-2)

You can identify that the x-intercepts of this function are:


p=-3\\q=2

And "a" is:


a=1

This means that the parabola is concave up.

Therefore, the graph of the function
f(x)=(x+3)(x-2) is the provided in the first option.
