Question 1 Report
(a) Copy and complete the following table of values for the relation \(y = x^{2} - 2x - 5\)
x | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
y | -2 | -6 | -2 | 3 | 10 |
(b) Draw the graph of the relation \(y = x^{2} - 2x - 5\); using a scale of 2 cm to 1 unit on the x- axis, and 2 cm to 2 units on the y- axis.
(c) Using the same axes, draw the graph of \(y = 2x + 3\).
(d) Obtain in the form \(ax^{2} + bx + c = 0\) where a, b and c are integers, the equation which is satisfied by the x- coordinate of the points of intersection of the two graphs.
(e) From your graphs, determine the roots of the equation obtained in (d) above.
