Question on: JAMB Mathematics - 2006
If y = x2 - x - 12, find the range of values of x for which y \( \geq \) 0
A
x < -3 0r x > 4
B
x \( \leq \) -3 or x \( \geq \) 4
C
-3 < x \( \geq \) 4
D
-3 \( \leq \) x \( \leq \) 4

Correct Option: C
y = x2 - x - 12
= (x - 4)(x - 3)
∴ x = 4 or x = -3
-3 < x < 4
But y \( \geq \) 0
∴ -3 < x \( \leq \) 4
= (x - 4)(x - 3)
∴ x = 4 or x = -3
-3 < x < 4
But y \( \geq \) 0
∴ -3 < x \( \leq \) 4
