# Curve and line

The equation of a curve C is y=2x² -8x+9 and the equation of a line L is x+ y=3

(1) Find the x co-ordinates of the points of intersection of L and C.
(2) Show that one of these points is also the stationary point of C?

Correct result:

a1 =  2
a2 =  1.5
b =  2

#### Solution:

Our quadratic equation calculator calculates it.

${a}_{2}={x}_{2}=1.5=\frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2}$
