Question

Which is an apparent factor of the quadratic function graphed below

Answer 1

B. (x - 5)

Explanation:

Looking at the graph, you can find the solutions of the function by seeing where it crosses the x-axis.

In this case, the function crosses the x-axis at the point (5,0), which is represented by (x - 5) because it is 5 units to the right of the origin.

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

Looking at the graph, we see it intersects the x-axis at -2 and 5, which means our factors, which are of the form x - a, are x + 2 and x - 5.

From the answer choices, we see that only B matches. The answer is thus B.
