Question

Find an equation that has the solutions:
t=17,t=-2
Write your answer in standard form.
Equation: 

Answer 1

f(x) = (t -17)(t +2)

 

f(17) = f(-2) = 0

 

You can expand f(x) to the form ax² + bx + c.

 

You posted a similar problem.  Just set it up the same way.

Answer 2

y=(t-17)(t-2)

 

y=t^2-2t-17t+34

 

y= t^2-19t+34   ----------standard form
