Write the equation in standard form of the function with x intercepts at (4,0) and (-2,0) that has been reflected across the x axis with a vertical stretch of 3

answer

explanation

since there are 2 x-intercepts, the lowest degree the function could possibly have is 2, so this could be the graph of a parabola

since our zeros are at x = 4 and x = -2, our factors are (x - 4) and (x + 2)

our equation so far is

(x - 4)(x + 2)

=

=

since the function is reflected across the x-axis, multiply the equation by -1

=

since the function has a vertical stretch of 3, multiply the equation by 3

=

left 3, up 4

step-by-step explanation:

just count the values of x & y of the vertex of the graph and see how many units in the x and y direction will get you from the f(x) graph to the f(x) graph
