Use this absolute-value functions page to sketch |f(x)| by keeping positive parts and reflecting negative parts above the x-axis.
(a) Find the coordinates of the stationary point on the curve y=(x+3)(x-4).
On the axes, sketch the graph of y=|(x+3)(x-4)|, stating the intercepts with the axes.


B1 for the correct shape. Must have the parabola part of the curve with maximum
in the first quadrant and cusps on the x -axis. Ignore labelling of their maximum point if incorrect coordinates
B1 for correct intercepts. Must be correct
