Question

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are -4 and -1 and whose leading coefficient is 2

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

here is the factored form of a quadratic equation :

f(x) = a ( x +/- n ) ( x +/- n )

We can just plug in what we know into this form :

f(x) = 2 ( x + 4 )( x + 1 )

If you were to plug this into desmos it will show you the graph!

Hope this helps!
