Find the equation for the graph of a parabola that has zeros of -2 and 8 and passes through the point (-1,-27).

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(x+2)(x-8); then see how far off you are at x=-1

OpenStudy (amistre64):

when x=-1; y=-9; so it has to be scaled by 3

OpenStudy (amistre64):

3(x+2)(x-8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the simplest equation with roots 2 and 8 is (x+2)(x+8) right amis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i should have written (x+2)(x-8)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you did fine, you changed the roots to match so its all good lol
