We read your photo as:

The graphs of f(x) = a(x+p)² + q and g(x) = -8/(x-1) + 9 are drawn below. P is the turning point of f and the point of intersection of the asymptotes of g. The graphs intersect at D(3; 5) M and T are the x-intercepts of f and g respectively. A and B are the y-intercepts of f and g respectively.

Here's the solution to question 7.1:

  1. Identify the function g(x)g(x) and its asymptotes.

    The function g(x)g(x) is given by g(x)=−8x−1+9g(x) = \frac{-8}{x-1} + 9.
    For a hyperbola in the form y=ax−p+qy = \frac{a}{x-p} + q, the vertical asymptote is x=px=p and the horizontal asymptote is y=qy=q.

  2. Determine the equations of the asymptotes for g(x)g(x).

    From g(x)=−8x−1+9g(x) = \frac{-8}{x-1} + 9, we have:
    Vertical asymptote: x=1x = 1
    Horizontal asymptote: y=9y = 9

  3. Find the coordinates of P.

    P is the point of intersection of the asymptotes of gg. Therefore, the coordinates of P are the values of xx and yy from the asymptotes.
    P=(1,9)P = (1, 9)

    The coordinates of P are (1;9)\boxed{(1; 9)}.
