WILL GIVE MOST BRAINIEST
Which of the following functions best describes this graph?
A. y (x + 4) (x + 5)

WILL GIVE MOST BRAINIEST Which Of The Following Functions Best Describes This Graph A Y X 4 X 5 class=

Sagot :

Answer:

D. y =

Step-by-step explanation:

The solutions to this graph (meaning when y equals 0 or when the graph crosses the x-axis) are 4 and 5.

The only answer choice that has the solutions 4 and 5 when you factor it out is D.

Here's the proof:

[tex]x^{2} -9x + 20[/tex]

Factors of 20: - 5 & -4

Sums that add up to -9: -5 + (-4)

[tex]x^{2} -4x-5x+20[/tex]

(factor the first two terms and the last two terms separately)

[tex](x^{2}-4x)(-5x+20)[/tex]

[tex]x(x-4) -5(x-4)[/tex]

(x - 5) (x - 4)
