Graph f(x)=(x+2)(x−4)
Use the parabola tool then choose the vertex followed by one point on the parabola.
(x + 2)(x - 4) expand
x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8
x^2 - 2x - 8
The x coordinate of the vertex is -(-2) / (2 * 1) = 2 /2 = 1
The y coordinate of the vertex is (1)^2 - 2(1) - 8 = 1 - 2 - 8 = -9
So...the vertex is (1, - 9)
A second point can be found if we let x = 0
(0)^2 - 2(0) - 8 =
-8
So (0, - 8) is on the graph
