Question

How do you write a quadratic function h whose zeros are 2 and 12?

Answer 1

quadratic means taht the highest power o the variabe is 2

if a function has roots v and u, then it can be factored into form

`f(x)=a(x-v)(x-u)` where a is a constant and v an u are the roots

if the roots (zeroes) are 2 and 12, then it can be factored into form

`f(x)=a(x-2)(x-12)` where a is a constant not equal to 0

if a=1 for simplicity

`f(x)=(x-2)(x-12)=x^2-14x+24`
