Question

Use the graph of the polynomial function to find the factored form of the

related polynomial. Assume it has no constant factor.
A. (x - 1)(x-9)
B. (x + 1)(x-9)
C. (x - 1)(x+9)
D. (x + 1)(x + 9)

Answer 1

Explanation:

The zeros are located at x = 1 and x = 9. If x = 1 is a solution, then the factor is (x - 1); if x = 9 is a solution, then the factor is (x - 9). Choice A is the one you want. FOIL these out and you will get the equation for the quadratic.
