TopicCurve Sketching
TypePolynomial intersection with algebra

10. (a) On the same axes sketch the graphs of the curves with equations
  1. \(y = x ^ { 2 } ( x - 2 )\),
  2. \(y = x ( 6 - x )\),
    and indicate on your sketches the coordinates of all the points where the curves cross the \(x\)-axis.
    (b) Use algebra to find the coordinates of the points where the graphs intersect.
