To get the answer I first found the y-intercept, and plugged in the coordinates to see how to go from there, the equation is y=x^2-4. When I factored the equation it was y=(x+2)(x-2) therefore the graph represents a difference of two squares

so is non factored?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um what do you mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer

OpenStudy (callisto):

@rajfk35 what is factored?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess so if thats what you mean

OpenStudy (callisto):

It *is* factored!

x^2 is a square, and 4 is a square. The answer is the last choice, "Difference of Two Squares".
