\end{figure} Fig. 12 shows the graph of \(y = \frac { 1 } { x - 2 }\).
  1. Draw accurately the graph of \(y = 2 x + 3\) on the copy of Fig. 12 and use it to estimate the coordinates of the points of intersection of \(y = \frac { 1 } { x - 2 }\) and \(y = 2 x + 3\).
  2. Show algebraically that the \(x\)-coordinates of the points of intersection of \(y = \frac { 1 } { x - 2 }\) and \(y = 2 x + 3\) satisfy the equation \(2 x ^ { 2 } - x - 7 = 0\). Hence find the exact values of the \(x\)-coordinates of the points of intersection.
  3. Find the quadratic equation satisfied by the \(x\)-coordinates of the points of intersection of \(y = \frac { 1 } { x - 2 }\) and \(y = - x + k\). Hence find the exact values of \(k\) for which \(y = - x + k\) is a tangent to \(y = \frac { 1 } { x - 2 }\). [4]

\end{figure} Fig. 7 shows the graph of \(y = \mathrm { g } ( x )\). Draw the graphs of the following.
  1. \(y = \mathrm { g } ( x ) + 3\)
  2. \(y = \mathrm { g } ( x + 2 )\)

5 The point \(\mathrm { P } ( 5,4 )\) is on the curve \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\). State the coordinates of the image of P when the graph of \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\) is transformed to the graph of
  1. \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x - 5 )\),
  2. \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x ) + 7\).

  1. Find the equation of the line passing through \(\mathrm { A } ( - 1,1 )\) and \(\mathrm { B } ( 3,9 )\).
  2. Show that the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB is \(2 y + x = 11\).
  3. A circle has centre \(( 5,3 )\), so that its equation is \(( x - 5 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = k\). Given that the circle passes through A , show that \(k = 40\). Show that the circle also passes through B .
  4. Find the \(x\)-coordinates of the points where this circle crosses the \(x\)-axis. Give your answers in surd form.
