Question

Graph the following quadratic equation and state their nature of solution

x2 – 9 = 0

Graph
Sum

Solution

Let y = x2 – 9

(i) Prepare the table of values for y = x2 – 9

x – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1 0 1 2 3 4
x2 16 9 4 1 0 1 4 9 16
– 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9 – 9
y 7 0 – 5 – 8 – 9 – 8 – 5 0 7

(ii) Plot the points (– 4, 7) (– 3, 0) (– 2, – 5) (– 1, – 8) (0, – 9) (1, – 8), (2, – 5) (3, 0) (4, 7)

(iii) Join the points by a free hand smooth curve.

(iv) The curve intersect the X-axis at – 3 and 3.
The solution is (– 3, 3).

(v) Since there are two points of intersection – 3 and 3 with the X-axis the quadratic equation has real and unequal roots.
