The equation of a curve is given as `y=x^(2)+2-3x`.
The curve intersects the x-axis at

A

`(1, 0)`

B

`(2, 0) `

C

Both (1) and (2)

D

No where

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

At x-axis, `y=0` so `x^(2)+2 -3x =0 rArr x =1 ` and 2
Therefore curve intersects the x-axis at (1, 0) and (2, 0).

    Tangent is drawn at the point (x_(i), y_(i)) on the curve y = f(x), which intersects the x-axis at (x_(i+1), 0) . Now again tangent is drawn at (x_(i+1), y_(i+1)) on the curve which intersects the x-axis at (x_(i+2), 0) and the process is repeated n times i.e. i = 1, 2, 3,......,n. If x_(1), x_(2), x_(3),...,x_(n) form a geometric progression with common ratio equal to 2 and the curve passes through (1, 2), then the curve is
