Ada draws the graph of y = x
2 - x - 2 and y = 2x - 1 on the same axes. Which of these equations is she solving?
-
A.
x2 - x - 3 = 0
-
B.
x2 - 3x - 1 = 0
-
C.
x2 - 3x - 3 = 0
-
D.
x2 + 3x - 1 = 0
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
Given; y = x2 - x - 2, y = 2x - 1
Using y = y, gives
x2 - x - 2 = 2x - 1
x2 - 3x - 2 + 1 = 0
therefore, x2 - 3x - 1 = 0
