Question
Comparable representing a quadrilatic equation has X intercepts at 1, 0 and -3, 0 and a third point at coordinates negative 1/4
Y = -1 x - 1x + 3
Y = 1X - 1x +
Y = -1 x - 1 x -
Y = -1 x + 1x + 3
Y = -1 x - 1x + 3
Y = 1X - 1x +
Y = -1 x - 1 x -
Y = -1 x + 1x + 3

It seems you are looking for a quadratic equation based on the given x-intercepts and a point. From your message, you mentioned the x-intercepts are at \( x = 1 \), \( x = 0 \) (which I'm assuming means it's a double root at \( 0 \)), and \( x = -3 \). Therefore, the roots can be summarized as \( 0 \) (with multiplicity 2), \( 1 \), and \( -3 \).
The general form of a quadratic equation with roots at \( x = a \) and \( x = b \) can be written as:
\[
y = k(x - a)(x - b)
\]
Since you have one root at \( 0 \) (which contributes a double root), let's clarify how we express these in factored form.
The intercept form would typically look something like this:
\[
y = k(x)(x - 1)(x + 3)
\]
To derive the final polynomial, we expand it and apply a known point to solve for \( k \).
Next, a point was mentioned at \( \left( -\frac{1}{4}, y \right) \), but we need the y-value for that point to solve for \( k \).
If we assume \( y \) at that point were \( 3 \) from your last option (though it’s unclear), we would substitute back to find \( k \):
1. Expand \( y = kx(x - 1)(x + 3) \).
2. Set \( x = -\frac{1}{4} \) and solve for \( y \).
3. Adjust \( k \) based on your y-value to find a specific equation.
However, I do not have a clear representation for the options you provided, so let's take a guess based on the context to propose a possible quadratic equation without full clarity on the point's values you intended.
Let's assume:
1. \( 0 \) is a double root
2. \( 1 \) and \( -3 \) are single roots.
The equation format:
\[
y = kx^2(x - 1)(x + 3)
\]
Upon exploring and simplifying, consider choosing \( k \) for an appropriate y-value (e.g., let’s use \( 3 \) for \( k=1 \) to fit the description closely).
For the final solution, please confirm or clarify your point details and other option breakdowns if needed. Therefore, one educated guess might look like:
\[
y = -1x^3 + 1x^2 + 3
\]
But exact writing would depend heavily on confirmed points and given y-values.
