Show that the curve with equation y=x^2-6x+9 and the line with equation y=-x do not intersect.

First, you equate the 2 equations to get this single quadratic equation (x^2-5x+9=0). And then evaluate the expression b^2-4ac. If b^2 -4ac is < 0 then they do not intersect. In our case b^2 -4ac is -9...

The line L has equation 7x - 2y + 11 = 0, Find the gradient of l

First rearrange the equation to get 2y = 7x + 11.Then divide through by 2 to get the equation for y: y=7x/2 +11/2Now differentiate with respect to x to find the gradient function: dy/dx=7/2 + 0We hav...
