Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a quadratic equation graphically we simply graph the function and note the points where the function intersects with the x-axis (the line y =0).
Consider the quadratic equation in number 11;
In order to solve the equation graphically we plot the function;
The x-coordinate(s) of the point(s) where this function intersects with the x-axis will be the solution to the original quadratic equation;
We can use technology to plot the function as shown by the attachment below;
The function crosses the line y = 0 (x-axis) at the points; x = -2 and x = 7.
The solutions to the given quadratic equation are thus;
x = -2 or x = 7
Lastly, if the plotted function does not intersect with the x-axis then the original quadratic equation has no roots or solutions;
This applies to question 3 as seen from the second attachment below;
