Since the discriminant of k2 - 2k + 9 < 0 and coefficient of k2 = 1 > 0,
k 2 - 2k + 9 > 0 for all real values of k and so the line intersects the curve at
two distinct oints. Al

12 Peter kicked a ball at the edge of the top of a building. The height, y metres, of the ball,
above the ground is given by ay = ax 2 + x - b, where x is the horizontal distance
travelled by the ball in metres and a and b are constants. The table below gives some
values of x and y.
