Question

Consider the graph of the polynomial function. Which of the following shows three binomial factors of the function?

Answer 1

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

We were given the graph

On the graph, we observe the places where the curve intersects the x-axis. These occur at the following point:

$\begin{gathered} x=-2\Rightarrow x+2 \\ x=1\Rightarrow x-1 \\ x=3\Rightarrow x-3 \end{gathered}$

The binomial factors is thus given by:

$(x+2)(x-1)(x-3)$

Hence, the correct option is B
