Determine where the PHD Mathematicians live. The Mathematicians who live within the enclosure made by
the parabola
y = x2 +2x-3
and the line
y = -x + 1
have all earned their PHD in Mathematics. The following mathematicians live at the following coordinates:
Annie Easley:
Benjamin Banneker:
Fan Chung
Joan Clarke
A (-3,5)
B (6, 5)
C (5,5)
D(-1,-3)

Emmy Noether
Jama Musse Jama:
E (3,6) David Blackwell:
F (-2,-2) Mary Somerville:
G (-1,-4) Grace Hopper:
H(-6,8) Nalini Joshi
I (-1, -1)
J (3,-2)
K(-1,-2)
L (0, -1)
a) Plot the points given above on the grid. *Label each point with the given letter
b) Graph the line
y = -x + 1
Slope=__: y-intercept=
c) Factor and then find the x-intercepts.
y=x2+2x-3
