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).
