Answer:
y = 2(x +2)(x -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept will be a constant times the product of the roots. Here, the product of the roots is (-2)(4) = -8, so the constant of interest is -16/-8 = 2. That constant is the coefficient of the leading term of the quadratic, so is a multiplier of the factored form.
y = 2(x +2)(x -4)
__
For root p, (x-p) is a factor in the factored form.
