(a) Copy and complete the table of values for the relation \(y = 3x^{2} - 5x - 7\).

x -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
y 35     -7 -9   5  

(b) Using scales of 2 cm to 1 unit on the x- axis and 2 cm to 5 units on the y- axis, draw the graph of \(y = 3x^{2} - 5x - 7, -3 \leq x \leq 4\).

(c) From the graph : (i) find the roots of the equation \(3x^{2} - 5x - 7 = 0\) ; (ii) estimate the minimum value of y ; (iii) calculate the gradient of the curve at the point x = 2.
