What are the key features of the equation y = (x + 12)(x + 6)?

Which is the correct answer:

A. ) The x-intercepts are (–12, 0) and (–6, 0). The y-intercept is (0, 72). The vertex is an absolute minimum, (–9, –9).

B.) The x-intercepts are (–12, 0) and (–6, 0). The y-intercept is (0, 6). The vertex is an absolute minimum, (–9, –9).

C.) The x-intercepts are (–12, 0) and (–6, 0). The y-intercept is (0, 72). The vertex is an absolute maximum, (–9, –9).

D.) The x-intercepts are (12, 0) and (6, 0). The y-intercept is (0, 72). The vertex is an absolute minimum, (–9, –9).
