Find an equation of the quadratic function whose f has zeros -1 and 3 and a maximum value of 8.
I've tried to use intercept form, but I'm not sure wha to do with the maximum value of 8.

Since the function is quadratic and has zeroes at -1 and 3, it must have the form $$f(x) = c(x+1)(x-3)$$ for some constant $c$. Can you take it from there?
