Question 113917: hey,
could u please solve this equation.
find the quadratic relation in vertex form that has zeros -3 and 5 and passes through (3,6).
i found x-value which is the axis of symmetry -3+5= 2/2 = 1
Therefore x=1
but i could not find the y-value
Please could u sovle it and send me back.
i will be waithing,
thank you,

Since the zeros are and we can find the factorization using these zeros. We simply need to use the zero product property in reverse

or Start with the given solutions

or Get the numbers to the left side

Since either piece equals zero, then their product equals zero



However, this equation may not pass through (3,6). So let's introduce an "a" coefficient in front to get the equation:




Now since the equation passes through (3,6), this means x=3 and y=6


Plug in x=3 and y=6


Combine like terms


Multiply


Divide both sides by -12


Reduce


So our answer is which means the equation is


Notice if we graph and plot the point (3,6), we can see that the point lies on the line and has zeros -3 and 5. So this verifies our answer.
