Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The question continues with these options:
a. x3 − 8x2 − 11x + 20
b. x3 − x2 + 22x + 40
c. x3 + x2 − 22x − 40
d. x3 + 8x2 + 11x − 20
A cubic in equation (x+5)(x+4)(x-1) or on a graph that crosses at -5, -4, and 1. Multiply the factors out to find the equation.
[tex](x+5)(x+4) = x^2+5x+4x+20=x^2+9x+20[/tex]
[tex](x-1)(x^2+9x+20)\\x^3-x^2+9x^2-9x+20x-20\\x^3+8x^2+11x-20[/tex]
