You have to find first the discriminant
∆=8^2-4*(-1) *(-7) =36
x=(-8±√36) /-2=(-8±6)/-2=4±3=1 or 7
So x(1)=1 or x(2)=7
-x^2+8x-7=[x-x(1) ][x-x(2) ]=(x-1) (x-7)
Draw a cartesian plane, create a graph with the equation x = y^2 - 2
then substitute numbers into the equation so that it is true, to find points on the graph, e.g. substitute y with 1, you get
x = 1^2 - 2
x = 1 - 2 = -1, so when y = 1, x = -1, this point is (-1, 1)
for the next substitute y with 2,
x = 2^2 - 2
x = 4 - 2 = 2, the point is (2, 2)
you might want to try negative values of y
y = -1, x = (-1)^2 - 2
x = -1 the point is (-1,-1)
then plot the points on the graph
Answer:
the answer is C hope this helps you
