    y = (-3/4) * (x - 2) * (x-6)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Ok, we can write a quadratic equation as:

    Y = a * (x - b) * (x - c)

    where a is a scalar, b and c are the roots.

    We know that b = 2 and c = 6, so we have:

    y = a * (x - 2) * (x - 6)

    now, we can expand this and get:

    y = a * (x^2 - 8x + 12)

    The optimal value of this quadratic equatin is when:

    x = 8/2 = 4

    So we have that when x = 4, we must have y = 3.

    3 = a * (4^2 - 8*4 + 12) = a*-4

    a = - 3/4.

    Our quadratic equation is:

    y = (-3/4) * (x - 2) * (x-6)
