Answer:
[tex]f(x)=(2x+1)(2x-1)[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to convert the function into the form that let's us easily find the x-intercept, and it would be for the form [tex](ax+b)(cx+d)[/tex] because then we can find the x-intercept in the following manner:
[tex](ax+b)(cx+d)=0[/tex]
[tex]x=-b/a[/tex]
[tex]x=-d/c[/tex]
We factor our function [tex]f(x)=4x^2-1[/tex] and get
[tex]\boxed{f(x)=(2x+1)(2x-1)}[/tex]
Now this form let's us easily find the x-intercepts:
[tex]x=-1/2[/tex]
[tex]x=1/2[/tex]
and so we pick the second choice: f(x)=(2x+1)(2x-1).
