Question

The graph of y=3x^2-3x-1 is shown. Use the graph to find estimates for the solutions of i)3x^2-3x+2=2 ii) 3x^2-3x-1=x+1

Answer 1

Answer:

i) (0, 2) and (1, 2), ii) (0.333, 1.333) and (1, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let be $y=3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x -1$, if $3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x +2 = 2$, which is equivalent to the following system of equations:

$y = 3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x +2$

$y = 2$

Now, this system is now represented by means of a graphing tool and whose outcome is attached below. There are two solutions: (0, 2) and (1, 2)

ii) Let be $y=3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x -1$, if $3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x +2 = x+1$, which is equivalent to the following system of equations:

$y = 3\cdot x^{2}-3\cdot x +2$

$y = x+1$

Now, this system is now represented by means of a graphing tool and whose outcome is attached below. There are two solutions: (0.333, 1.333) and (1, 2)
