Question 178080: Quadratic relations
7) Sketch a graph of each quadratic. Label the x-intercepts and the vertex.
b) y=2(x-3)(x+1) pleaseeeeeeeeeeee
thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhh

The x-intercepts are the roots. The roots are values of that make
. Looking at the equation, if


And if


So, and must be the x-intercepts.
The vertex is always exactly midway between the roots, so



So, the vertex is at (,)




So, the vertex must be at (1,-8)
Now I'll graph the equation to prove what I said
