2. |
Solve
the linear system: x - 2y = 14
and x + 3y = 9 |
|
The graphing calculator will only accept
function entries that start with "f (x) =",
( "y = " ),
so we need
to solve these equations for"y =".

1. Enter the first equation into f1(x). 
to access f2(x),
2. Enter the second equation into f2(x). 
3. Adjust the Window to show the intersection point if needed.
, #4 Window/Zoom, #1 Window Settings
4. Find intersection point.
, #6 Aanaylze Graph,
#4 Intersection
Scroll and lock upper and lower bounds surrounding the intersection point.
5. ANSWER: (12, -1) |

3. |
Solve
linear quadratic system: y = x2 - 4x - 2 and y = x - 2 |
|
1. Enter the first equation into f1(x). 

2. Enter the second equation into f2(2).
3. If needed, adjust window so intersection points are veiwable on the screen.

4. Use the INTERSECTION option
twice to find the
two locations where the graphs intersect.
, #6 Aanaylze Graph,
#4 Intersection
Scroll and lock upper and lower bounds surrounding the intersection point. .
