Answer:

f(x)=0.5x^2-4x+7.5

Explanation:

The general form of a quadratic function is:

y=ax^2+bx+c

We'll find the general form of the function:

f(x)=0.5(x-3)(x-5)

Multiplying the expressions in parentheses:

f(x)=0.5(x^2-5x-3x+15)

Simplifying:

f(x)=0.5(x^2-8x+15)

Operating:

$\mathbf{f(x)=0.5x^2-4x+7.5}$
