Solve the simultaneous equations; 3x+2y=11 and 2x-2y=14

2y=11-3x    and 2y=2x-14

11-3x=2x-14

25=5x   thus x=5

3(5) +2y=11

2y=-4    thus y=-2

The curve has equation y = x^3 - x^2 - 5x + 7 and the straight line has equation y = x + 7. One point of intersection, B, has coordinates (0, 7). Find the other two points of intersection, A and C.

As both equations are equal to y, we can combine them to create a single equation in terms of x: x^3 - x^2 -5X + 7 = x + 7. Shift the equation so the left hand side is equal to 0 on the right: x^3 - x^2 -...
