Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attachment.
The graph will have x-intercepts where the factors are zero, at x=6 and x=-2. The y-intercept will be the value when x=0: (1/8)(-6)(2) = -1.5.
The axis of symmetry is halfway between the zeros, so is x = (6-2)/2 = 2.
The minimum value of the function is at x=2, so is ...
y = (1/8)(2 -6)(2 +2) = 1/8(-16) = -2
Other y-values can be found by substituting other x-values in the equation and evaluating it. Rather than go to that trouble, I prefer to use a graphing calculator.
