Use the graph to write the factorization of x^2+4x-5

Answer: OPTION C
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, the roots of the quadratic function are the interceptions of the parabol with the x-axis.
As you can see in the graph, the parabola intersects the x-axis at:
[tex]x=-5\\x=1[/tex]
Then these are the roots.
Therefore, this means that:
[tex]x=-5\\x+5=0\\\\x=1\\x-1=0[/tex]
So, the factorization is the following:
[tex](x+5)(x-1)=0[/tex]
ANSWER
[tex]y = (x + 5)(x - 1)[/tex]
EXPLANATION
From the graph, the x-intercepts are
[tex]x = 1[/tex]
and
[tex]x = - 5[/tex]
This implies that (x-1) and (x+5) are factors of the function represented by the graph.
Therefore we factor the function as
[tex]y = (x + 5)(x - 1)[/tex]
The correct choice is C.
