Question

what are the factors of the function represented by this graph?

\\((x - 4)\\) and \\((x - 8)\\)
\\((x - 4)\\) and \\((x + 8)\\)
\\((x + 4)\\) and \\((x - 8)\\)
\\((x + 4)\\) and \\((x + 8)\\)

Explanation:

Identify the x-intercepts from the graph

$$ x_1 = -4,\quad x_2 = 8 $$

Relate the zeros to their corresponding factors

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Match with the given options

$$ \text{Factors: } (x + 4) \text{ and } (x - 8) $$

Answer:

  • (A) \((x - 4)\) and \((x - 8)\)
  • (B) \((x - 4)\) and \((x + 8)\)
  • (C) \((x + 4)\) and \((x - 8)\) (Correct answer)
  • (D) \((x + 4)\) and \((x + 8)\)
