First, please focus on the Math alone.  You can incorporate the Math into your fairy tale later.   Given two zeros of a quadratic function, how would you go about writing the FACTORS of that quadratic equation?  Once you have these factors, how would you then obtain the actual quadratic equation?

Good.  No problem there.  Please focus on the Math first (see my first posting, above).  Answer my questions as best you can.  I won't be on OpenStudy for long today, but will return later.
