No, y = -x^2-4x+3 is not the answer

This graph shown opens upwards while your answer has a graph that will open downwards.

y = x2 + 4x - 3 y = x2 - 4x + 3 y = -x2 + 4x - 3 y = -x2 - 4x + 3

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Roots are x = 1 and x = 3, so x = 1 or x = 3 x-1 = 0 or x-3 = 0 (x-1)(x-3) = 0 x^2 - 4x + 3 = 0 So the answer is choice B

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

And it turns out that the y-intercept is (0,3) which is the y-intercept for y = x^2 - 4x + 3, so that works out
