y= 3x-2 and y= -x^2+2x+1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for both equations find values of y for x= -2,-1,0,1,2,3.
\n" ); document.write( "Plot the graphs .
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3x-2=-x^2+2x+1 ( both are equal to y)
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+x-3=0
\n" ); document.write( "solve the equation by quadratic formula
\n" ); document.write( "x1=(-b+sqrt(b^2-4*a*c))/2*a)
\n" ); document.write( "a=1, b=1,c=-3
\n" ); document.write( "plug the values of a b c
\n" ); document.write( "x1=(-1+sqrt(1+12)/2
\n" ); document.write( "x1= 1.3
\n" ); document.write( "x2=(-1-sqrt(1+12)/2
\n" ); document.write( "x2= -2.3
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Now y= 3x-2
\n" ); document.write( "fr x= 1.3 y=1.9 ( 1.3,1.9)
\n" ); document.write( "For x= -2.3 y=-8.9 (-2.3,-8.9)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " (1.3,1.9), (-2.3,-8.9) are the points of intersection
