The equation of the function that could make the graph is f(x) = x²(x - 2)²(x - 4)²

How to determine the function of the graph

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The graph

Taking the relative maxima as the zeros of the graph, we have the following

Zeros: x = 0, 2 and 4

Where the zeros have a multiplicity of 2 each

This is so because the graph touches (but not cross) the x-axis at this point

So, we have the expression in factored form to be

f(x) = x²(x - 2)²(x - 4)²

Hence, the expression in factored form is f(x) = x²(x - 2)²(x - 4)²
