Equations given roots:

x2 - (sum of roots)x + (product of roots) = 0

OR

z [x2 - (sum of roots)x + (product of roots)] = 0

ex: x2+5x+4=0 has the same roots as

10x2+50x+40=0 with z=10.

So the equation is y = 2x2 -6x +5

OR y = 2(2x2 -6x +5) y = 4x2 -12x +10

OR y = 3(2x2 -6x +5) y = 6x2 -18x +15

To find z, substitute another point

in for x and y. Vertex = (2, -1)

-1 = z[22 - 4(2) +3]

-1 = -1z
1 = z The function is f(x) = x2 - 4x +3.
