Answer: A. y=x²-9x+20

Explanation:

As we can see from the graph there are two x-intercepts: (4,0) (5,0)

The easiest way we can do, is we plug these two values into each of the choices.

A. y=x²-9x+20

(4, 0) YES

(5,0) YES

B. y=x²-8x+18

(4, 0) NO

(5, 0) NO

C. y=x²+9x+20

(4, 0) NO

(5, 0) NO

D. y=x²+x-12

(4, 0) NO

(5, 0) NO

Therefore, the answer should be y=x²-9x+20

Hope this helps!! :)
