p= -17 and x=2 or 2.5 are the other roots

a=6 ; (0,6)
(b) (-3,0) and (0.5,0)
p = -0.5(q+2)
(b)p= -3 ; y=x2-3x+4
f(x)= (x+4)(2x+1)(x-3)
k=5 or -3
x(x-1)( x2+x+1)
(ai)g(f(x))=4x2+4x+1+k
(aii) f(g(x))=2x2+2k+1
(bii) when k=6 the roots are real, distinct and rational
(biii) k= -2 for equal roots
8. x = -1
9. k = 5
10. (a) k = 3
(b) (x-2)(x+2)(x+3)
11. (b) x = -3; x = 0.5
12. (a) p(4,0)
(b) x+2y=4
(c)Q(0.5, 1.75)
