20 The diagram shows parts of the graphs of \(y = \mathrm{f}(x)\) and \(y = \mathrm{g}(x)\).

(a) Find g(0) (1)
(b) Find gf(–1) (2)
(c) Calculate an estimate for the gradient of the curve \(y = \mathrm{f}(x)\) at the point on the curve where \(x = 3\) (3)

Notes
M1: correct method to find gradient (vertical / horizontal ignore sign at this stage – must use scale on graph)
A1: accept –0.7 to –1.4 inc dep on method seen
