Question

The function f(x) has zeros at -2 and 3. What is a possible equation for f(x)?

Answer 1

EXPLANATION

If the function f(x) has -2 and 3 as zeros, the possible equation is:

$f(x)\text{ = (x+2)(x-3)}$

Applying the distributive property:

$f(x)=x^2-3x+2x-6$

Adding like terms:

$f(x)=x^2-x-6$

The answer is f(x)= x^2-x-6
