Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Standard Form (Quadratic):
y=ax^2+bx+c

Vertex Form (Quadratic):
y=a(x-h)^2+k

Intercept Form (Quadratic):
y=a(x-p)(x-q)

p,q are x-intercepts

x-intercepts given in graph: -2,4


y=a[x-(-2)](x-4)

eqn 1:
y=a(x+2)(x-4)

Plug in the given point to find 'a' : (3,-5)


-5=a(3+2)(3-4)


-5=a(5)(-1)


1=a

Substitute 'a' in to eqn 1.


y=1(x+2)(x-4)

eqn 2:
y=(x+2)(x-4)

Expand eqn 2. (can use FOIL)


y=x^2-2x-8
