Question 982936: Function & graph:
The two curves are the branches of the graph of y=1/x. The straight line intercepts the x-axis at point (-1,0) and the y-axis at point (0,2).it also cuts the curves at points A and B. Find the coordinates of point A and of point B.

The line has slope 2 and y-intercept is given. The line has the equation .

The intersection points A and B will be for formed by equating the two expressions for y. This will be a quadratic equation giving two x coordinates.

Discriminant is .

The two points to be found, still unfinished, would be as these:

and
-
and .
