Answer 1

$y = (x + 4)(x - 6)\\\\y=x^2-6x+4x-24\\\\y=x^2-2x-24$

Answer 2

Hey!!

What is a standard form in a quadratic equation?

... y = ax² + bx + c

In this equation, x and y are points where as a,b and c are the constants.

We have:

... y = (x+4)(x-6)

... y = (x)(x)+(x)(-6)+(4)(x)+(4)(-6)

... y = x² - 6x + 4x - 24

Combining the like terms.

... y = x² - 2x - 24 Is the standard form.

Hope my answer helps!
