The function h(x) is quadratic and h(3) = h(-10) = 0. Which could represent h(x)?

1) h(x) = x2 - 13x - 30
2) h(x) = x2 - 7x - 30
3) h(x) = 2x2 + 26x - 60
4) h(x) = 2x2 + 14x - 60

Answer:

h(x) = 2x^2 +14x -60

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic is of the form

h(x) = ax^2 + bx +c

h(3) = h(-10) = 0

This tells us that the zeros are at x=3 and x = -10

We can write the equation in the form

h(x) = a( x-z1)(x-z2) where z1 and z2 are the zeros

h(x) = a(x-3) (x- -10)

h(x) = a(x-3) (x+10)

FOIL

h(x) = a( x^2 -3x+10x-30)

h(x) = a(x^2 +7x -30)

Let a = 2

h(x) = 2x^2 +14x -60

It means

zeros are 3 and -10

Form equation

  • y=x²-(3-10)x+(-10)(3)
  • y=x²+7x-30

Multi ply by 2

  • y=2x²+14x-60
