Solve the equation .
Isolate the squared term.
Take the square root of both sides.
Solve for .
For :
For :
The solutions are and .
Part b
The diagram shows a sketch of the graph of . The graph has its turning point at A.
b)(i) Find the coordinates of C.
Point C is an x-intercept, which means .
Set in the equation :
Factor out the common term.
Set each factor to zero to find the x-intercepts.
The graph shows that C is the x-intercept other than the origin. Therefore, the x-coordinate of C is 2.
The coordinates of C are .b)(ii) Find the coordinates of A.
Point A is the turning point (vertex) of the parabola .
For a quadratic equation , the x-coordinate of the vertex is given by .
In this equation, , , and .Calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex.
Substitute the x-coordinate back into the equation to find the y-coordinate.
The coordinates of A are .
