well in C1 sometimes they ask for finding the coordinates of points of intersection of cubic and quadratic equations so do I have to exactly the graph for each equation toget the points of intersection
or should I make the two equation equal to get the answer
Thanks in advance
Yes you just equate the Equations and get the Intersection Points between the TWO graphs in case there are TWO graphs to draw
But if it's just ONE graph then you have to solve as follow:
Firstly, you solve the equation as though that the
X = 0 ,in other words you're finding the point of intersection of the graph with the
y-axis.
Secondly, You solve the equation as though the
Y = 0 , in other words you're finding the point of intersection of the graph with the
x-axis.
I hope I cleared your doubt
No, you dont have to sketch the graph exactly.
If you could actually post the Question then I can help better.

It helped me a lot with C1.
Seconded.
It helped me with C1 , C2 as well as M1
