Answer:

D

Explanation:

one way to write a quadratic equation is using the y = (x-s) (x-r) where r and s are positive zeros. another way to solve this and think about it would be to plug in your points and equate both sides.

example:(3,0) (8,0)0 = (3-8) (3-3)0 = 00 = (8-8) (8-3)0=0

It’s D. You basically plug it in to x and whatever equals 0 is the correct answer
