Question 1 Report
The table below shows the values of the relation \(y = 11 - 2x - 2x^{2}\) for \(-4 \leq x \leq 3\).
x | -4 | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
y | -13 | 11 |
(a) Copy and complete the table.
(b) Using a scale of 2 cm to 1 unit on the x- axis and 2 cm to 5 units on the y- axis, draw the graph of \(y = 11 - 2x - 2x^{2}\).
(c) Use your graph to find : (i) the roots of the equation \(11 - 2x - 2x^{2} = 0\) ; (ii) the values of x for which \(3 - 2x - 2x^{2} = 0\) ; (iii) the gradient of the curve at x = 1.
