Question 1 Report
(a) Copy and complete the table of values for the relation y = 4x\(^2\) - 8x - 21, for -2.0 \(\leq\) x \(\leq\) 4.0
x | -2.0 | -1.5 | -1.0 | 0.5 | 0.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 1.5 | 2.0 | 2.5 | 3.0 | 3.5 | 4.0 |
y | 11 | -9 | -21 | -24 | -21 | -9 | 0 |
(b) Using a scale of 2cm to 1 unit on the x-axis and 2cm to 5 units on the y-axis, draw the graph for the relation y = 4x\(^2\) - 8x - 21
(ii) Use the graph to find the solution set of
(\(\alpha\)) 4x\(^2\) - 8x = 3;
(\(\beta\)) 4x\(^2\) - 7x - 21 = 0
