WAEC - Mathematics (1998 - No. 29)

The graph is that of the quadratic expression

\(y=x^2 + x - 2\)
\(y=x^2 - x + 2\)
\(y=x^2 - x - 2\)
\(y=x + x + 2\)
\(y=x^2 - 2 x - 2\)

Explanation

The curve cuts the x-axis at x = -1 and x = 2

(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

x\(^2\) - 2x + x - 2 = 0

x\(^2\) - x - 2 = 0
