Write down

(i)     the \(x\)-intercept of the graph of \(y = {\text{ }}f(x)\);

(ii)     the \(y\)-intercept of the graph of \(y = {\text{ }}g(x)\).

Solve \(f(x) = g(x)\).

Write down the interval for the values of \(x\) for which \(f(x) > g(x)\).

(i)     \(( - 1,{\text{ }}0)\)     (A1)

Note: Accept \( - 1\).

(ii)     \((0,{\text{ }} - 1)\)     (A1)     (C2)

Note: Accept \( - 1\).

\((x = ){\text{ }} - 2.96{\text{ }}( - 2.96135 \ldots )\)     (A1)

\((x = ){\text{ }}1.34{\text{ }}(1.33508 \ldots )\)     (A1)     (C2)

\( - 2.96 < x < 1.34\;\;\;{\mathbf{OR}}\;\;\;\left] { - 2.96,{\text{ }}1.34} \right[\;\;\;{\mathbf{OR}}\;\;\;( - 2.96,{\text{ }}1.34)\)     (A1)(ft)(A1)     (C2)

Notes: Award (A1)(ft) for both correct endpoints of the interval, (A1) for correct strict inequalities (or correct open interval notation).

Follow through from part (b).
