The graph is that of the quadratic expression
Attached Figure / Diagram
A
\(y=x^2 + x - 2\)
B
\(y=x^2 - x + 2\)
C
\(y=x^2 - x - 2\)
D
\(y=x + x + 2\)
E
\(y=x^2 - 2 x - 2\)
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
The curve cuts the x-axis at x = -1 and x = 2
(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0
x\(^2\) - 2x + x - 2 = 0
x\(^2\) - x - 2 = 0
