The equation of the parabola C is y = - 2x^2 + 5x.
\n" ); document.write( "Find the intercept of C with the axes.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept:: ?
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = -2*0^2+5*0 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "So, y-intercept is (0,0)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercept:: ?
\n" ); document.write( "Let y = 0, then -2x^2+5x = 0
\n" ); document.write( "Factor to get:
\n" ); document.write( "(x(-2x+5) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x = 0 or x = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "x-intercepts are (0,0) and (5/2,0)
\n" ); document.write( "====================================
