What is the factorization of the polynomial graphed below? Assume it has no constant factor. Write each factor as a polynomial in descending order.
Accepted Solution
A:
The factorization of the polynomial would be: y = (x - 5)(x - 7).
There are two x-intercepts at 5 and 7. Therefore, those are the zeros of the functions. Using those 2 values, we can write the following factors: (x - 5) and (x - 7)
