Question

Use the graph to write the factorization of x2 + 4x - 5.10+y = x2 + 4x-5-1010-10O A. (x + 1)(x - 5)B. (x + 5)(x-1)C. (x-3)(x-2)D. (X+6)(x-2)

Answer 1

Solution

From the given graph

The zeros of the given graph are

$x=-5,1$

Converting the zeros to roots gives

$\begin{gathered} x=-5,1 \\ x=-5 \\ x+5=0 \\ x=1 \\ x-1=0 \end{gathered}$

The factorized form of the equation of the given graph is

$(x+5)(x-1)$

Hence, the answer is option B
