Answer:
Explanation:
y = x² + x - 3 
x = - 3 
y = ( - 3 )² + ( - 3 ) - 3 = 3 
( - 3 , 3 ) 
x = 0 ⇒ y = - 3 
( 0 , - 3 ) 
x = 1 
y = ( 1 )² + ( 1 ) - 3 = - 1 
( 1 , - 1 ) 
(b). Coordinate x of the vertex of quadratic equation y = ax² + bx + c is 
- 
 
 
x = - 
 = -
 = - 
 = - 0.5
 = - 0.5 
y = ( - 0.5 )² + ( - 0.5 ) - 3 = - 3.25 = - 3
