At the points where the graphs y = x^2 - 3 and y = 2x
intersect, the x and y coordinates are the same.
Here we
substitute 2x for y in y = x^2 - 3
=> 2x = x^2 -
3
=> x^2 - 2x - 3 =
0
=> x^2 - 3x + x - 3 =
0
=> x(x - 3) + 1( x - 3) =
0
=> (x + 1)(x - 3) =
0
=> x = -1 and x = 3
y
= 2x = -2 and y = 6
The required points of
intersection are (-1, -2) and ( 3, 6)
