in my answer i put 0 instead of x and 1.5 instead of y I am so sorry the answer should be y=(-1.5/9.2)(x+2)(x-4.6) not 1.5=(-1.5/9.2)(0+2)(0-4.6) y=(-1.5/9.2)(x+2)(x-4.6)
parabola x intercept form is: y=a(x-x1)(x-x2) x1 and x2 being the x intercepts x intercepts are -2 and 4.6 -(-2)=2 -(4.6)=4.6 therefore y=a(x+2)(x-4.6) to solve for a substitute with the other coordinate they give you (0,1.5) 1.5=a(0+2)(0-4.6) 1.5=a*2*-4.6
