The purpose: understanding the correlation between the roots of the equation (zero points).
Let's go back the first example y= x2-3x-10
Is it possible to find additional points which have two origins except in case of 0 as the image-
Let's choose any x- remember f:R® R
Substitute x= 2:
y= 22-3*2-10
y= 4-6-10
y=-12
If there is an additional x with an identical image it will hold the equation:
x2-3x-10= -12
and this according to the definition of the function.
x2-3x-10+12=0
x2-3x+2=0
x1=2
x2=1
In order to get additional pairs with an identical image, record in the window the value of x1 and press enter to get the value of x2
Note the values x1 , x2 each time-
