Find the equation of a quadratic function with zeros at x = 2 and x = 4 and y- intercept (0,8). Give your answer in standard form.

Since we know the zeroes of the function we can write:

y = a(x - 2)(x - 4) but we need to solve for a. Thankfully, we know that (0, 8) belongs to the line so we can plug these values in for x and y to solve for a. We get:

8 = a(0 - 2)(0 - 4)

8 = a * (-2) * (-4)

8 = 8a

a = 1 so the equation is y = 1(x - 2)(x - 4) or just y = (x - 2)(x - 4) for short.

Turning this into standard form we get y = x² - 6x + 8.

4 + 5 7/9= 9 7/9

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.

hope i !
