The graph of (x) represents an even function.
The graph of fx) crosses the x-axis in three places: (-5, 0), (–2, 0), and (2, 0).
Choose the factored form of an equation that best represents the polynomial.
OAf(x) -a (х +5) (x?- 4)
ОВ f(x) —а (х? +10х +25) (х?— 4)
= a
OC f(x) =a(x?+ 7x+10) (x? – 4)
O D. f(x) =a (x? +3x-10)(x+2)
