Solution

The correct option is A (0, -3)
To plot the graph of y=x22x3, form the following table by assigning integer values from -3 to 4 for x and finding corresponding values of y=x22x3.
x32101234x29410149162x64202468333333333y125034305
Plot the points (-3, 12), (-2, 5), (-1, 0), (0, -3), (2, -3), (3, 0), (4, 5) and join the points by a smooth curve.
It is clear from the graph that the curve intersects the y-axis at one point(at -3).
