Write a quadratic function with zeros 7 and –2.
Write your answer using the variable x and in standard form with a leading coefficient of 1
Since the zeros are at x = 7 and x = -2, the quadratic function can be written as:
f(x) = (x - 7)(x + 2)
f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 14
So, the quadratic function in standard form with a leading coefficient of 1 is:
f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 14
