Write the equation of the graph shown below in factored form. a graph that starts at the top left and continues down through the x axis at negative one to a minimum around y equals negative twelve point two five and goes up to touch the x axis at two and the goes back down to a minimum around y equals negative one half and goes back up through the x axis at two.

f(x) = (x − 2)2(x + 1)(x − 3)
f(x) = (x + 2)2(x − 1)(x + 3)
f(x) = (x + 2)2(x + 1)(x + 3)
f(x) = (x − 2)2(x − 1)(x − 3)

the formula of a slope:

we have the points (-2, 7) and (2, 3). substitute:

explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

answer: - (a)

(b) 88 seats

step-by-step explanation:

given: in an auditorium, there are 22 seats in the first row and 28 seats in the second row.

thus first term=

second term=

the number of seats in a row continues to increase by 6 with each additional row.

⇒d= 6

a) given formula :

b)   let the number of seats (n) = 12

substitute n=12 in the explicit rule formed in (a)

∴there are 88 seats in 12 rows.
