This form is called factored because it uses the factors of a multiplication.
With this form, we can easily identify the points of intersection of the function with the axis.
The factored form of the quadratic function looks like this:

The factored form of the quadratic function looks like this:
Find the standard representation of the following function
\( f(x)=(x-2)(x+5) \)
Where
and are the intersection points of the parabola with the axis.
In the following way:
Let's see an example of the factored form:
We can determine that:
the intersection points with the axis are:
Notice that, since there is a minus sign in the original form before and , we can deduce that if there is a plus sign before one of them it is negative and, therefore and not .
Find the standard representation of the following function
We will begin by using the distributive property in order to expand the following expression.
(a+1)⋆(b+2) = ab+2a+b+2
We will then proceed to insert the known values into the equation and solve as follows:
(x-2)(x+5) =
x²-2x+5x+-2*5=
x²+3x-10
And that's the solution!
Determine the points of intersection of the function
With the X
In order to find the point of the intersection with the X-axis, we first need to establish that Y=0.
0 = (x-5)(x+5)
When we have an equation of this type, we know that one of these parentheses must be equal to 0, so we begin by checking the possible options.
x-5 = 0
x = 5
x+5 = 0
x = -5
That is, we have two points of intersection with the x-axis, when we discover their x points, and the y point is already known to us (0, as we placed it):
(5,0)(-5,0)
This is the solution!
