Use the function f(x) = −16x2 + 24x + 16 to answer the questions.

Part A: Completely factor f(x).

Part B: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work.

Part C: Describe the end behavior of the graph of f(x). Explain.

Part D: What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)? Justify that you can use the answers obtained in Part B and Part C to draw the graph.
