Problem

(a) On Diagram 1 sketch the graphs of

(i) y=x(3x)y=x(3-x),

(ii) y=x(x2)(5x)y=x(x-2)(5-x),

showing clearly the coordinates of the points where the curves cross the coordinate axes.

y=x(3x)andy=x(x2)(5x)\begin{align*} y=x(3-x) \quad\text{and}\quad y=x(x-2)(5-x) \end{align*}

are given by the solutions to the equation

x(x28x+13)=0.\begin{align*} x(x^2-8x+13)=0. \end{align*}

For y=x(3x)y=x(3-x), the graph is a downward-opening quadratic crossing the xx-axis at

(0,0)and(3,0).\begin{align*} (0,0)\quad\text{and}\quad(3,0). \end{align*}

For y=x(x2)(5x)y=x(x-2)(5-x), the graph is a negative cubic crossing the xx-axis at

(0,0),(2,0),(5,0).\begin{align*} (0,0),\quad(2,0),\quad(5,0). \end{align*}

交点满足两个 yy 值相等。把两式联立后,把所有项移到一边并提出 xx

答题过程

展开

At the points of intersection,

x(3x)=x(x2)(5x).\begin{align*} x(3-x)=&\,x(x-2)(5-x). \end{align*}

So

x(x2)(5x)x(3x)=0x{(x2)(5x)(3x)}=0.\begin{align*} x(x-2)(5-x)-x(3-x)=&\,0\\ x\{(x-2)(5-x)-(3-x)\}=&\,0. \end{align*}

Now

(x2)(5x)=x2+7x10.\begin{align*} (x-2)(5-x) =&\,-x^2+7x-10. \end{align*}

Therefore

x(x2+7x103+x)=0x(x2+8x13)=0.\begin{align*} x(-x^2+7x-10-3+x)=&\,0\\ x(-x^2+8x-13)=&\,0. \end{align*}

Multiplying by 1-1 gives

x(x28x+13)=0.\begin{align*} x(x^2-8x+13)=0. \end{align*}

解法二

思路

展开

两边完全展开后合并同类项求解的方法。 我们也可以将等式两边完全展开,再合并同类项。 方程的左边展开为:

y=3xx2\begin{align*} y = 3x - x^2 \end{align*}

方程的右边展开为:

y=x(x27x+10)=x37x2+10x\begin{align*} y = x(x^2 - 7x + 10) = x^3 - 7x^2 + 10x \end{align*}

令两边相等:

3xx2=x37x2+10x\begin{align*} 3x - x^2 = x^3 - 7x^2 + 10x \end{align*}

将所有项移到等号同一边并提取公因式 xx,即可得出 x(x28x+13)=0x(x^2 - 8x + 13) = 0。该方法极为直观,非常符合常规的代数展开和整理习惯。

答题过程

展开

Expand the LHS of the intersection equation y=x(3x)y = x(3-x):

LHS=3xx2.\begin{align*} \text{LHS} = 3x - x^2. \end{align*}

Expand the RHS of the intersection equation y=x(x2)(5x)y = x(x-2)(5-x):

RHS=x(5xx210+2x)=x(x2+7x10)=x3+7x210x.\begin{align*} \text{RHS} =&\,\, x(5x - x^2 - 10 + 2x)\\[3mm] =&\,\, x(-x^2 + 7x - 10)\\[3mm] =&\,\, -x^3 + 7x^2 - 10x. \end{align*}

Set LHS equal to RHS:

3xx2=x3+7x210x3x - x^2 = -x^3 + 7x^2 - 10x

\begin{align*} Move all terms to one side (e.g. to the left-hand side): \end{align*}

x3x27x2+3x+10x=0x38x2+13x=0.\begin{align*} x^3 - x^2 - 7x^2 + 3x + 10x =&\,\, 0\\[3mm] x^3 - 8x^2 + 13x =&\,\, 0. \end{align*}

Factor out the common term xx:

x(x28x+13)=0.x(x^2 - 8x + 13) = 0.

This is the required equation.

解法一

思路

展开

第一象限的交点不是原点,所以解 x28x+13=0x^2-8x+13=0。两个解中,较小的那个给出第一象限交点。

答题过程

展开 x28x+13=0x=8±64522=4±3.\begin{align*} x^2-8x+13=&\,0\\ x=&\,\frac{8\pm\sqrt{64-52}}{2}\\ =&\,4\pm\sqrt3. \end{align*}

For the first quadrant point,

x=43.\begin{align*} x=4-\sqrt3. \end{align*}

Then

y=x(3x)=(43)(34+3)=(43)(1+3)=4+43+33=7+53.\begin{align*} y=&\,x(3-x)\\ =&\,(4-\sqrt3)(3-4+\sqrt3)\\ =&\,(4-\sqrt3)(-1+\sqrt3)\\ =&\,-4+4\sqrt3+\sqrt3-3\\ =&\,-7+5\sqrt3. \end{align*}

Therefore

P=(43,7+53).\begin{align*} P=\left(4-\sqrt3,\,-7+5\sqrt3\right). \end{align*}
