24 Here is the graph of \(\; y = x^2 - 6x + 4\)
(a) Write down the \(y\) intercept of the graph of \(\; y = x^2 - 6x + 4\) (1)
(b) Write down the coordinates of the turning point of the graph of \(\; y = x^2 - 6x + 4\) (1)
(c) Use the graph to find estimates for the roots of \(\; x^2 - 6x + 4 = 0\) (2)

| Answer | Mark | Mark scheme |
|---|---|---|
| 5.1 to 5.3 and 0.7 to 0.9 | M1 | for a correct method, eg marking both intercepts with \(x\)-axis or one correct solution |
| A1 | for answers in the range 5.1 to 5.3 and 0.7 to 0.9 |
Additional guidance
Accept both solutions given as a coordinate for M1
eg (5.2, 0.8) or (0.8, 5.2) or (5.2, 0) and (0.8, 0)
