Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2015

Ada draws the graph of y = x2 - 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
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

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
