Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2001

The graph of the curve \(y = 2x^2 - 5x - 1\) and a straight line PQ were drawn to solve the equation \(2x^2 - 5x + 2 = 0\)
What is the equation of the straight line PQ?

A
y = -1
B
y = 1
C
y = 3
D
y = -3
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: D

Let the straight line PQ = y

2x\(^2\) - 5x - 1 - y = 2x\(^2\) - 5x + 2

y = 2x\(^2\) - 5x - 1 - 2x\(^2\) + 5x - 2 

y = -3
