Answer:
f(x)= 3(x^3+ x^2-2x)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have to find polynomial of degree 3 and it's factors are x-1,x and x+2
then we can let this polynomial be
f(x) = a (x-1)(x)(x+2)
where a is constant and this polynomial function is of degree 3.
and we know that f(2)=24 now using it
f(2)=a(2-1)(2)(2+2) =24
a (1)(2)(4)=24
8a=24
then a=3 so the function is
f(x)=3(x-1)(x)(x+2)
=3(x-1)(x^2+2x)
=3(x^3 + 2x^2 -x^2- 2x)
= 3(x^3 + x^2 - 2x)
