The graph of y = x2 + 11x + 24 is equivalent to the graph of which equation?

a)y = (x + 8)(x + 3)
b)y = (x + 4)(x + 6)
c)y = (x + 9)(x + 2)
d)y = (x + 7)(x + 4)

Answer 1

Heya!!

y = x² + 11x + 24

y = x² + 8x + 3x + 24

y = x (x + 8) + 3 (x + 8)

y = (x + 8) × (x + 3)

So, The graph of y =x² + 11x + 24 is Equivalent to The graph of

y = (x + 8) × (x + 3)

Answer 2

y= x^2+ 11x +24

☑ just factorise the equation by splitting of the middle term..

y = x^2 +11x + 24

= x^2 + 8x + 3x + 24

= x (x + 8 ) + 3 (x + 8 )

= (x + 3) (x + 8)

☑ The graph of y = x2 + 11x + 24 is equivalent to the graph of

$\boxed{\textbf{\large{(x + 3)(x + 8 )}}}$
